Verizon Wireless mandating data plans for all 3G devices? UPDATED
We’ve been told that Verizon Wireless will be switching around some of their 3G data plans for handsets starting January 18th.
Supposedly, all 3G-capable phones, Rev 0. and Rev A. will now require a minimum $9.99 data plan which includes 25MB (and also includes mobile email). The 75MB plan is reportedly going away to be replaced with a $29.99 unlimited option (including mobile email). The only exception to the rule are the PTT phones.
UPDATE: Added photo confirming this, but the required data plan only applies to “3G Multimedia devices,” apparently.
