Verizon will only offer unlimited data plan for iPhone

article published on 25 January, 2011

Verizon COO Lowell McAdam has confirmed today that Verizon will offer an unlimited data plan for the iPhone, which will cost $30 per month. In June, AT&T dropped its unlimited data plan for smartphone users, moving to $25-a-month for 2GB or $15-a-month for 200MB. Each plan has massive overage charges. Verizon offers $30 unlimited or $15 for 150MB, but the company has long said it will ... [ read the full article ]

I guess my Droid X might be the last phone I have for quite some time since I will be grandfathered.

If you change phones I doubt you will loose unlimited. With ATT I went from the iPhone 3g to the iPhone 4 and didn't loose unlimited. Verizon would be smart to follow the same path.

Good thing I'm on T-Mobile. Unlimited data and cheaper than a similar plan from Verizon and AT&T.

Just call me Grand'pa...because I will keep getting unlimited data while new users will be capped, and that will make the network that much faster for me!

Um, I just called VzW (for an unrelated matter) and talked to Paulo. He confirmed that the unlimited data plan is not exclusive to the iPhone and that based on his briefings just today (Feb 1st), VzW will continue to offer $15/150mb/month or $30/unlimited for smartphones. For feature phones, in addition to the two tiers above, there is a per-use tier at $1.99/mb.

Additionally, I doubt that VzW will drop the unlimited entirely (I can be wrong). The quote could refer to when VzW will roll out 4G or LTE that it may revisit its data plans. Well, considering the fact that technology is going the route of providing each consumer with portable data consuming devices...

Also, a minor nitpick, the author of this post should change the title - it can be misconstrued to make it sounds like the VzW iPhone is the only smartphone that will benefit from the unlimited plan or that the iPhone will only get the unlimited. Confusing either way.
