Amazon Unveils New Kindle Tablets > 250 MB / Month???

Re: 250 MB / Month???

Think about it this way: with that little data, you'll make a concerted effort to use the tablet on WiFi whenever possible.

If you do that and don't tether (speaking from experience with my iPad on a 1GB plan), you'll stay under 250MB.

I think there's going to be A LOT of people going over the cap without realizing just how little their "plan" allows them to use it (most people don't know what to relate a MB with). I totally understand that from a cost standpoint, it's a decent deal. I just think that a 250 MB plan is extremely light, especially considering how quickly one could use up the entire month's cap in less than two minutes.

Honestly, it sounds like a trap to me. Sucker people into buying the plan, then AT&T will profit from the overages.

My bet is that there won't be any overages. At 50% of your cap the Kindle will let you know. At 75%? Same thing. At 90%? Same thing. At 100%, the service will ust shut off for the rest of the month.
