Without question, the trend today is moving towards unlimited data, a selling point that Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T all now get behind, albeit with some qualifications. Nonetheless, the lone outlier with respect to unlimited data remains Verizon.
Not wanting to be left out of the party, Verizon late last week announced a peculiar new data plan called PopData. The gist of it is that subscribers can pay for unlimited data by the hour if they’re in a pinch. As part of the plan, subscribers can pay for unlimited 4G LTE data in either 30 or 60-minute installments.
