No FUP limits on T-Mobile either?

One thing I noticed when looking around 5 months ago is that some providers advertise data amounts but it only applies to mobile data, not tethered data. Worth double checking if you plan to use it that way.

Another thing to check is if they slow you down after x amount of data. Virgin used to (not sure if they still do) slow you down to 3g speeds for the rest if the month. Three also slow you down if you are an extreme user but only until the end of the week.

Always double check TOC, Fair Usage Policy and forums to get the truth.
