Imagine getting a cable internet connection for your home PC, but your cable provider wants to charge you an extra 20$ bucks if you want to online game with your XBOX with it. It shouldnt matter HOW you use what they are saying is included. Unlimited data is data downloaded to your phone, how can they charge you more just because your phone then passed it on to your PC / laptop?
this should be painfully obvious this is not the samething. you're comparing a connection that is mobile to one that has to be used in a certain area. Also your example is wrong because comcast and time warner both sell data cards and charge more if you want the wifi option.
