ay they will be offering shared data plans in August to compete with Verizon.
Here's an analysis from tech blog
: "The new plans will be available in late August and start at a cheaper rate than Verizon’s — $40 for 1GB of data, plus $45 for each smartphone versus $50 and $40 on Verizon — but end up being more or less similar in the end. One key difference is that AT&T’s smartphone fee gets smaller as you add more data, whereas Verizon’s fee is always $40. Both companies’ 4GB plans, for example, are $70 for the data, plus $40 for each smartphone. At the top end, AT&T will offer 20 GB of data for $200 and $30 for each smartphone, compared to Verizon’s 10 GB plan that offers the data for $100."
Will you take AT&T up on their plans?
