The smaller, more regional carriers are in the same situation as the big boys though. MetroPCS subscribers have throttling in place as well. Each of their plans will slow your speeds down considerably if hit. Today they just released a new plan for their customers that is all but tantalizing. For $70 bucks a month they are offering unlimited everything, voice, text, data and email on 4G LTE. Included in the deal is unlimited video on demand and Rhapsody.
We tried to find any small print with restriction on the unlimited data aspect and if there was a throttle point. We were unable to find one. Looks to be a pretty straight forward unlimited option for those data hungry users out there. Any MetroPCS subscribers out there care to comment of service and speeds?
