Re: $60/mo 2 yr contract for all AT&T laptop data plans

I have a netbook + ATT data plan. I wish they offered this a month ago. Currently using a USB 3G stick. Integrated would nice. A netbook for $99 would even be nicer.

I paid $99 for my 3G card. $260 for my netbook after rebates. So people are getting a modem + netbook for $99 is a steal.
Suuure, along with the $1500 cost, right? :rolleyes:

Why am I not surprised that none of you guys realize that you can add your own SIM reader and then if you get a second line added to your plan w/ $20 unlimited smartphone service you got the same service.
to get a $20 smartphone data plan, you would need the IMEI of a smartphone. the billing system only allows compatible plans to their devices, so if your IMEI is for a blackberry, it will only allow a user to add a blackberry data package to it. in order for you to take advantage of this deal, you would be activating it with the IMEI of the integrated data card, thus the billing system would only allow the compatible data plan.

and btw, YOU are the one not seeing the deal. if someone were to buy a laptop from anywhere and go on their own to get the data plan, they are STILL paying the $1500 assuming they use the data plan for 2 years PLUS buying their own data device if it not already integrated in the laptop. (this price goes for either of the "big 2" - VZ or ATT) getting an extra couple hundred bucks off your "device" (i.e. laptop) is therefore a deal.
