    According to my Verizon rep - Feb 29 is the last day for the $59.99 mo = Unlimited Internet Plan
    (with a Verizon Wireless Card).

    Starting March 1st - $59.99 mo = 5G per month (addl $ for data beyond 5G) . . . .

    Best.

    When is unlimited NOT unlimited ?

    .
    Nevermind.

    Some post purchase research has revealed . . . .

    "If usage exceeds 5 GB per line during any billing period, we reserve the right to reduce throughput speeds of any application that would otherwise exceed such speed to a maximum of approximately 200 Kbps."

    link = BroadbandAccess Terms & Conditions


    ANYONE - Any idea what 5G per month means for i-surfers (No downloads - music, movies, photos, etc) ? . . . .

    Honestly 5g for a casual user is plenty get it and try for the first 30 days. If you get close cancel and get someone else.

    Yet that all ADDS to your normal monthly plan costs, so I decided it was not worth it... yet.

    I asked 2 different VZW reps about this & they told me, the do NOT cap BB data. Their plan says "unlimited." That's the wording on my bill, so if they ever cap me, I'll bring in my bill to refute any additional charges. ;)

    Was told the same thing for my BB. But I was cautioned with my PC card. This was even before they started throttle down the speed.
