Re: Can you say Anti-Competitive

My bad. I read the reply from my posts list (which doesn't show the post you were replying to) and I was most recently chatting about TWC backing off the bandwidth caps. Reading it again, it totally makes sense.

While my dataconnect plan has a 5GB limit, I read my iPhone TOS and it doesn't say anything about limits. A high bandwidth consuming app that runs from the phone could easily be problematic for AT&T. And even some of Apple's own apps, like some app store downloads can only (or could only) be done over Wi-Fi or installed when docked.

The alternative would be for AT&T to levy the 5GB limit that they have on tethering plans (like Blackberry w/ tethering) or dataconnect plans on the iPhone data plan.
