In a move that looks to soon become industry wide, AT&T announced that it’s going to get rid of unlimited data plans for iPhones and iPads. Instead they are going to offer tiered data plans, much like their tiered tired phone plans.

It’s an unfortunate move. AT&T’s strength was offering unlimited data to iPhone users. That’s why we’ve have all put up with crappy (or no) voice connections. Their voice connection is especially bad in the 808 area code. The company may have just given many of its subscribers another reason to jump back to Verizon, if they can ever seal the deal with Apple.
