Verizon Confirms $30 Unlimited Plan for iPhone, Cuts $15 Option

Okay...so I work for AT&T. Not a fan boy or anything, they just pay my bill. I've been with them for about two years now and although it's upsetting that they got rid of their unlimited plan, I don't think it's the worse thing in the world.

Ever since AT&T lowered the data plan from a solid $30 to either $15 or $25, I've seen more people who would have otherwise went for a messaging phone now going for smartphones because they are more affordable. Older people and younger people right out of college. It hurts my commission, no doubt. But in the grand scheme of things, it works well for the customer.

I always say this is all about choice. You can pick your carrier, you can pick how much you can afford every month and see which provider you want to go with. You may not see this mass exodus just because AT&T doesn't have an unlimited plan. Hell, most of the diehards are grandfathered in to the AT&T unlimited plan anyway.
