new share plans
Looks to me like they are raising the rates by eliminating individual plans. Not by much. For instance, I have 3gb data and 450 anytime minutes + unlimited text and mobile to mobile for $89 and change (really $97 after fees). The new deal if I were to switch would give me unlimited text, talk and 2gb data for 95 + fees. About $5/mo more with 1gb less data.
I agree with them on simplifying choices though.
The plan you have is really the only one I'll miss. Otherwise, Mobile Share is almost always the best option, yeah.
That, and family plans with multiple non-smartphones. They're better with FamilyTalk hands-down.
Tethering question
The last line reads "Tethering is included in Mobile Share plans, as well."
Now is this where you physically connect your device to your laptop via cable or is the hotspot feature where the wireless phone sits there and broadcasts a Wi-Fi signal? Just curious since people get the tethering idea mixed up.
It includes both physical tethering (via USB) and mobile hotspot usage (via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth).
Of note, it only supports smartphones, NOT tablets.
