$29.99 unlimited data worth it? - Page 3

I have WiFi at home and do not use Netflix outside a WiFi network. I use 3G while at work. I make sure I turn it off at the end of my workday. I just cover the 250 monthly usage this way. I will not use the unlimited but maybe the second higher setup when traveling and need GPS. This new plan will serve me better.

I have it and the service only provides bandwidth of between 200K and 300K in both directions. I saw an article of how someone replaced the AT&T unit with the guts of a Verizon MIFI and got over 1MPS downloading.

I wish we had another choice besides AT&T. The 3G is good for email and web but where I live I wouldn't attempt to stream ABC as it would be nothing but pure frustration.
