Mount Airy, MD | BULLSHIT! If most other ISPs dropped the references to "unlimited" access because of these things, then Verizon needs to do the same for its EV-DO product.
This is one of those few situations where regulatory agencies need to step in and tell Verizon that this isn't even remotely legal.

Unlimited NationalAccess/BroadbandAccess:
Subject to VZAccess Acceptable Use Policy, available
on www.verizonwireless.com.
NationalAccess and BroadbandAccess
data sessions may be used with wireless devices for the following
purposes: (i) Internet browsing; (ii) email; and (iii) intranet access
(including access to corporate intranets, email and individual
productivity applications like customer relationship management, sales
force and field service automation). Unlimited
NationalAccess/BroadbandAccess services cannot be used (1) for
uploading, downloading or streaming of movies, music or games, (2) with
server devices or with host computer applications, including, but not
limited to, Web camera posts or broadcasts, automatic data feeds, Voice
over IP (VoIP), automated machine-to-machine connections, or
peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing, or (3) as a substitute or backup for
private lines or dedicated data connections. NationalAccess/BroadbandAccess
is for individual use only and is not for resale. We reserve right to
limit throughput or amount of data transferred, deny or terminate
service, without notice, to anyone we believe is using NationalAccess
or BroadbandAccess in any manner prohibited above or whose usage adversely impacts our network
or service levels. {Translation,
everything above just became useless in a court of law.} Verizon
Wireless reserves the right to protect its network from harm, which may
impact legitimate data flows. {Translation, even
if you do nothing wrong according to our written polcies, we can
terminate you for no reason.} We also reserve the right to
terminate service upon expiration of Customer Agreement term. {In case a court rules against us and the above, and we
still have to provide you service under the modified (by court)
contract, we can terminate you when the contract is over, or we decide
your not a profitable customer like Cingular does.}
