Verizon all set to drop unlimited data plan offer on iPhone


More and more operators are becoming allergic to Unlimited data plans on wireless. Verizon Wireless, USA based operator,  who has only just started selling the Apple iPhone,  is already planning changes to the tariff plans it offers to its customers. Specifically, it intends to cancel the headline grabbing "unlimited" mobile data tariff as soon as this summer and switch to a tiered pricing model. The mobile network operator currently offers an unlimited data option for US$30 per month, although it reserves the right to throttle the download speeds for heavy users in areas where network congestion is high. That compares to the offer from rival iPhone seller, AT&T - who charge US$25 for 2Gb of data traffic per month.
