Re: Tethered Data Connection Plans

this a case for Monty Pythons argument clinic

I think this where this misleading
I may be wrong, but I seem to remember that last year (fall 04) when I was looking at
Cingular there was a $24 plan that was the "media works unlimited" package
( messaging and unlimited data) not a "media net plan" which is straight data
- being unlimited =19.95
the "media works unlimited" package was no longer available by the time i got my service
feb 05
Since you say your friend is grandfathered in --- he probably has "media works" unlimited package --- which is as I said gone

He should stay with that package   (messaging and unlimited data)

we can argue till were blue in the face
Cingular will say there is no such plan
If your lucky enough to have a salesperson that has been there longer than a week
they may be honest enough to tell you its a now defunct plan
Carriers add and drop features at the drop of a marketing idea

How many people know that Cingular has 1500 minute anytime plan ( with no roll-over)
Saw it on the website -- not the store

Seems store (cingular and franchise) web and good old over the phone mail order
can make different offers

That's MEdia Net Unlimited at $19.99.

As I wrote, "there is no $24/month Cingular package."

WHO CARES WHAT ITS CALLED... its the unlimited data plan from a tethered handset. Cingular calls it the MNUN and says it is $19 for unlimted tethered data access.

It exists, Cingular says it exists, users have it. Just because YOU can't get it or find it, does not mean it isn't out there. 

What part of "there is no >>>$24/month<<< Cingular package" don't you
understand?!
