AT&T and Verizon have formally announced their iPad 2 pricing plans, and it’s clear that they expect us to live in the stone age when it comes to internet usage on the go.
Here are the numbers, broken down:
Verizon | AT&T | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Gigabytes | Monthly Cost | Per GB | Gigabytes | Monthly Cost | Per GB |
1 GB | $20 | $20 | 250MB | $14.99 | $59.96 |
3 GB | $35 | $11.67 | 2 GB | $25 | $12.50 |
5 GB | $50 | $10 | |||
10 GB | $80 | $8 |
And of course, this doesn’t even include the cost if your data runneth over, which is a whole other absurd list of charges. Because of this mass confusion and chaos, I’m pretty much decided on wi-fi only.
Remember when AT&T offered unlimited data for iPad for $30? For one month? Then killed that?
Good times.
