After AT&T was alerted of the usage they gave me a call, luckily they're going to credit me for last month BUT I'm already at 4.9+GB this month and it's only been two (2) weeks...AT&T suggested I return my USBConnect and go with a competitor that has unlimited usage, lol! I'm not aware of any companies offering unlimited modem data.


Sooo...I'm thinking about buying a Blackberry and using it as a 3G modem for my laptop. For $35 p/ month I can get unlimited data usage on it and stay with AT&T. Will it work? Am I still bound to the 5GB transfer even though it's an "unlimited" media service? You think they'll catch on?! Any other ideas?
Not going to work as we have usuage levels for everything (most compaines do), also you have to pay 40-50 for blk berry data/tether. Also the speeds will be much less than your data card. I don't sell the tether package for pdas, b/c it is just not worth it b/c of the speed/price.
