How is VZW Unlimited on the 5?

It'll feel better once I am not near wifi as much as I am now.

I don't think so. I get a 21% discount on the DATA USUAGE AMOUNT portion of my bill which works out to be a nominal 14 bucks out of a over 300 dollar bill. It's not a 21% discount of the ENTIRE bill conbined.

He was speaking about the data used in the image, not the discount. Some people are against unlimited users actually using data beyond an arbitrary number they make up in their heads.

Because people used a service they paid for? I don't get it. Hey, if you want to stick around 5GB/mo - feel free and cancel unlimited to switch to a plan like that. But if I pay $30/mo for unlimited on my phone and $30/mo for unlimited tethering... guess what? I'm going to use both services as I pay $60/mo for it!

This!!!

i'm grandfathered at the moment, but i only have an iphone 4. thinking about the iphone 5.

i'm deciding whether to buy full retail to keep unlimited or buy the subsidized and get locked into a 2 year contract.

will the data speed throttle when i go over 2 gb? i'm thinking paying 10$ extra each month for 1 gb of overage data doesnt sound bad during those times i need it. i rarely go over 2 gb on my iphone 4. but just wondering if it will throttle, coz if it doesnt, i just might go abandon ship and go with a contract.

If you had searched, you'd see that verizon doesn't usually throttle though they have the option to.
AT&T throttles for 2 gb on 3G while it throttles for 5gb on lte.
