I think AT&T network congestion was not really the point of the $15 and $25 data plans because most people would use around 400mb of data minimum if they used the 3G without trying hard to hog the bandwidth. I have tried as much as I could but even with Pandora, I could only use 376mb out of 2 gb. I think most people with these 2gb plans will stop using wifi at home and office so that they can get some benefit out of paying $25 a month.
The iPhone uses a lot of data. Why hog wifi bandwidth at home for that?
Really, in most countries of the world, the minimum iPhone plan is 400-500mb. This is because that is what you would use "reasonably". With the 200mb limit, I always have to worry about bandwidth and it takes all the fun away.
So, now I have turned off wifi at home and office, so I use as much of the 2gb as I can. Let me know see how much I an use maximum in a month. That will tell us how realistic 200mb really is.
We are going backward. Maybe when Verizon gets the iPhone we will get a better deal.
Did I tell you the poor sobs who are getting verizon phones now are all going to go out of date in a year?. That is because then we will have LTE.
