That verizon would do that is not surprising. They did not want to budge on those dataplan costs. Touting 'superior network' as their selling point. It was not until they tried to move into M2M that they realized no one was going to pay 45 bucks per MB and that AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint would sell data and text at a much more reasonable rate. The original iPhone was neat but not much better than everything else out there in that category. Its one killer feature was that unlimited plan. That turned a remote device from something you did very little with because you did not want to get reamed on the data plans, to something you could hook the internet up to. It took verizon ages to realize it.
