That's why it might be worth getting grandfathered in (so to speak since there's no 4G pricing structure yet) with 4G before ATT goes that route.

Samsung Captivate on AT&T for now, going back to the iPhone when the 5 comes out.

I am using either my IPOD and my IPAD for a phone using the company LINE2.

I was told by AT&T that the unlimited data plan is not offered anymore,

ATT hasn't offered an unlimited plan since last summer. Individuals who had it at the time were grandfathered in. I assumed that it would not extend to 4G service and that a switch to tiered data would be inevitable. However, it's been reported that the grandfathered unlimited data plans have been carried over to 4G phones.

This surprises me and I don't expect this to be the case once ATT rolls out extensive 4G LTE coverage.

It is not officially offered anymore but there is a huge loophole for those that are on the limited plans. When I cam back from sprint in August, unlimited was not offered anymore. I was stuck with the 2gb plan until last weekend.

There is no reason to believe that the will change when LTE is rolled out. Currently isn't Sprint the only provider that started to charge more for 4G service.

It may or may not make a difference, with Sprint, when the 4G phones came out they added this fee, and told you up front of course, a 4G cost the extra fee, then several months later, they have added the fee to ALL Smart Phones from what I recall.

HTC Thunderbolt on Unlimited data. Have 4G here at work, but not where I live.

AT&T Nexus One with CM 7.0.2. I'm still on my grandfathered unlimited data plan. The extra $5/month gives me peace of mind that I will NEVER be charged an overage fee, which was good because the last two months I was hitting the 2GB "limit" due to my Sirius Radio being down in the car and constantly using the app to stream. I plan on jumping once a good hackable 4G phone comes out. So far the current batch of phones still have too many battery issues for my blood. Once we get the 2nd and 3rd generation 4G/LTE handsets I think I may reconsider my options.
