While I know the news today from Ben5 about the SIM ID's is somewhat good news about the launch being next week, but not 100% definite yet.

I think we should show Verizon our disgust with the iPad coming before it launch plan.

So, since tomorrow is iPad2 launch day, I think we all should vent on Verizon's twitter and facebook page. or instead of venting, say something good about the ThunderBolt or why its better than the iPhone/iPad.

Try to convince those followers to switch to the dark side

Speaking of the iPad 2, they just released data plan prices for the iPad 2. I could live with these for LTE.

Monthly Usage Cost / Data Allowance
•$20 per month / 1 GB per month
•$35 per month / 3 GB per month
•$50 per month / 5 GB per month
•$80 per month / 10 GB per month

I could do $35 for 3 GB but that is pushing it for me.

Same here. I *may* go up to $40, but $45 is out of the question.

 

[spartanguy81]

those are the same prices for all 3g netbooks/ tablets? nothing new there...and its still just 3g?

Well those are still normal air card data plans for the most part.

Good point. Hadn't look at them for awhile.

I think we'll see something a little friendlier. Since Tablets are less "mobile" that is to say, used at home, or work, or Starbucks. I think the tiered pricing will line up a little more like this:

$25 2GB
$35 5GB
$45 8GB

This provides a savings from the current pricing to lower-data users, while giving Verizon $5 extra from those currently on Unlimited (taking into consideration the 5GB soft cap) and allows "Heavy" users to go crazy.

Is this old news?

 

[Atrav]

Very new to me.

I have felt that sometimes "thanks" button is used like the "like" button on facebook. Maybe there should be some equivalent to a "like" button here too so that it can be differentiated from "thanks". Just a thought.

Adding a "like" button was going to be my suggestion too. Seems that is what it is being used for at times. It allows people to post agreement to something without having do add a brand new reply with "I agree" or "+1".....which only adds to thread length.
