Re: Not meant to be your primary connection

Its a mobile internet connection, that's why you have a HSI connection at home or at your office. I think the most you should really use it for is checking/sending email or light browsing. I have the unlimited media net plan from AT&T and I barely used 30MB last month. I really don't see how some one can go over 5GB a month.

Tethering. if you don't have broadband in your area and use your phone as a modem, its EASY to blow five gigabytes.

Re: Not meant to be your primary connection

Which goes back to my point that it's not meant to be your primary connection.

And it's not easy to blow five GB unless you are engaged in activities prohibited by AT&T's TOS/AUP.

5GB of Flash? Uh huh. Go explain that to AT&T and see if they go for it.
