Sprint Axes Unlimited Data for Some Users

Sprint is now axing unlimited data for Mobile Broadband plans – as seen in the picture above. Instead of getting your allotment of 3G and unlimited 4G you are getting your allotment of 3G combined with 4G. For example if you have the 3GB of 3G plan it would be 3GB of both 3G and 4G together. It is important to note here that this does not affect your smartphone data plan, and for those of you with …

Hopefully Verizon’s IT department has rectified this problem so every one has their 4G LTE service back as soon as possible. Let …

by Darryl Doak on Jun 25, 2011 4 Comments">4

So this is a very highly anticipated Android launch that we have here. But instead of just playing catch …
