i'll go out on a limb and say that if they offer the iphone with a capped data plan (and it is the only one you can get with a capped plan), it will be my next phone.

bad news on my virgin mobile front....they are putting in a soft cap of 5GB which is typical of all carriers but Sprint according to the article.

It is still unlimited but after 5 GB of data they will lower your speed.

perhaps i shouldn't have overestimated vzw on this one. . .they are temporarily offering a $15 data plan for smartphones. . .but that is for 150mb a month. . .overages are billed at $15 per 150mb. . .not sure this is a great option, but i'll start charting my data usage to see how much i use.

Wow you use a lot

I have the AT&T $15 for 200 MB and I haven't had a problem. I can't stream over 3G or download stuff but other than that I am fine. I also manually get my email when I choose but I have never went over.

this whole vzw iphone is an interesting situation... i get a new phone this summer, so i'm not sure what to do... it just seems crazy-ish to get an iphone 4 in the early summer when iphone 5 might be 2 months away... an android phone could be the route i go instead... its tough.

i still think it is funny that people who ask when iphone 5 will come to vzw are told "we won't comment on an unannounced device"

and they are so afraid that they will have network crashes that they are throttling back top users. this could get ugly.

They have already ran out of their stockpile in just 17 hours and the iPhone broke the 1 day vzw sales record. Amazing since it isn't even out yet :-)
