I can't imagine someone subscribing to each and every one of these:
* Unlimited voice, text and data on a smartphone
* Netbook data plan
* A "slate" (no clue what this is) 3G data plan
* Home internet
* Mobile internet for a laptop
* Wi-fi hotspot access
Oh, and a home landline.
Sounds more like someone thought up a headline they wanted to write and then came up with the data to back it.
- potatolicious 17y agoA "slate" is the new class of touchscreen tablet devices expected to emerge Apple's announcement next week. The journalist here doesn't seem to understand that a "slate" owner is unlikely to own a netbook at the same time. Nor does he apparently understand that unlimited data on a smartphone entitles you to ubiquitous free WiFi (in the US anyways), so your netbook/slate data plan is entirely unnecessary, especially when considering tethering capabilities of the phone you're already using.
