Lower the prices!

I have Att GSM wireless service and they charge something like $7 for 1 megabyte of download for their internet connection. I haven't even bothered trying it because that is such a ridiculous amount of money for 1 megabyte. If they did something like $20 for unlimited, I might budge. Lower the damn prices if you want people to use the service.

  I have the $7 for a megabyte stuff on my GSM phone and its actually quite worth it. After browsing the web on my phone for about an hour and a half, there was only 40 KB used. You get 1024 KB for the $7. So its really hard to use all of that up. Also, you can download just about anything you want from ringtones to pictures and not have to worry. Plus its only 7 freaking dollars. If you want to pay the $20.48 for the same amount of data without the plan (its normally $0.02/KB), be my guest! Also, if its possible that you do go over, its only $.01 per KB.

Think yourself lucky, only $7. I am in the United Kingdom and paying £8 (about $12) for 1Mb and then if you go over the top the equivelant cost is about $0.03/Kb, and I am on the cheapest (and best) mobile telephone network who actually use the 3G technology here.

yeah - I'd probably go for sprint but i don't have to pay anything for the service itself so i think i will stick with at&t. My bill is usually only around $14 after taxes and some other added features. I get 1000 anytime anywhere minutes so im quite happy
