$25 for 4MB
$60 for 30MB
$100 for 100MB
so this is very exciting for us to finally be able to use a data device as a data device.

You are soooo right. I was despairing that the Cdn. cell providers were going to continue to collude in keeping data pricing high and as much as I have never been fond of Bell, you really got to hand it to them for being the first to jump. Because of them, I was able to get Telus to give me the $15 unlimited data plan on the Touch in addition to a new Touch for $99 in spite of being in the middle of a 3-year contract on my 6700. I've been walking around for the last week expecting Telus to call me and say they made a mistake! It sure is nice being able to use the data features without having to worry about going over the 4mb limit. I now can understand why many folks don't care about having wifi!
