AT&T Wireless customers

Don't get too attached to that Grandfathered plan -- AT&T can (and does) throttle people back (lower their bandwidth) when they use "too much". This was challenged in court and AT&T won.

I have the grandfathered plan and this has not happened to me, but I don't use it as fully as I could. I am looking at changing over to the "new" plans as I like AT&T, just hate the cost.

A high percent of the use is thru wifi, so probably never get close to the "throttle back" point. Never had it happen, so will hang with it unless it becomes an issue.
