AT&T has always been a scam. WHile I feel bad for nw iPhone users, its new iPad owners who will feel the pain. With apps like Netflix 2GB goes by in a flash. Thankfully I'm "grandfathered in", but it doesn't make this any less insane. If this isn't a sign of the split between Apple and At&t I don't know what is. Verizon iPhone here we all come.

What does it mean to be "grandfathered in"?

It means that those of us who already have unlimited plans are allowed to keep them, even after an upgrade. It is only people who change plans after June 7th that are effected.

That said AT&T said 1st gen iPhone owners can still choose the unlimited plan even AFTER june 7th. 

 

I know, it is crazy confusing and the typical AT&T bullshit.
