    Possible Things that will push you to the 1Gb limit
    - Tethering
    - VOD and other streaming media
    - mp3 download


    Amazon has the section for mp3 download as well as VOD. I'm guessing that's what we'll have access to. Now how much of that counts towards your 1Gb cap and how much of it falls under "... Some downloads, such as movies, music, and games, not included." we don't know.

    Actually, if I remember correctly, the Amazon MP3 store WILL NOT work over 3G It's against the TOS. So, whenever you DL from that, you'll be doing so over Wifi. Plus, tethering isn't supported. (People will do it, I know, but it's not supported, and that would definitely fall under "breaking the rules and getting penalized for it."

    It is still unlimited, just "reduced to 50 kbps or less".

    Why isn't anyone noticing it is still legally an Unlimited internet service? They are limiting the SPEED not the amount of DATA you can transmit, thus it is UNLIMITED DATA. entiendes?

    They've also covered their butts by disclosing that speed will be limited after using 1gb of bandwidth. Class action lawsuit for doing what they said they'll do?

    Look man cool it, he doesn't need to "cheel" your the one screaming
    "LAWSUIT" for something that you can't sue for. They're still giving you unlimited data, just at a reduced speed like all the members have been telling you.

    EDIT: Jorsher beat me to it... Never mind.

    New World, I mistakenly posted the same thing twice I was referring to that. It's not a big deal.
