Verizon doubling data caps tomorrow on plans.

Well, welcome back! Looking forward to hearing about your experience Friday with your two new devices! I presume you ordered the Droid RAZR's that are coming 11-11-11?

Quite cursÃ* for google to pick that particular date. Almost similar to them bidding PI on some patents.

Hmmm. I'm usually Anti-Verizon because of their High prices. However, I just checked through my employer discount website, and a 450 minute plan with 500 texts and 4 GB of data is $71.99 (with my 20% discount.)

Very tempting, considering the slow Sprint speeds in my area(1.2 mb/sec max.)My $30/month SERO plan is the only thing holding me back.

What's their best Android phone, looks like the Droid Bionic, no?
Also can the Motorola's be rooted to get wireless tether without the $30 hotspot fee(I hardly use it?)

Edit: interesting, during the checkout process it says "Numbers not available. Change city/state to proceed" So I can't get a local number with a Verizon cellphone?

What, sorry I not following what you are saying? Doubling data caps date today or RAZR date? Neither have anything to do with Google.

IMO, there are 3 to consider now.

RAZR coming out end of the week should be an upgrade to the Bionic. HTC Rezound is basically an EVO/Tbolt on steroids and of course the Galaxy Nexus which should be out by 11/21. All are pretty solid and have the positives and negatives.

@gullzway at least u can get up to 1.2mb I can't even get that anymore not even overnight, now I get between 400 and 768 overnight, yea u know the slow speeds I get as I have my own thread on that. U should check out Tmo tho.

@Riley I was talking about the date, seems that VZ was taking after google with that.

@Dr.8820 yea I couldn't believe that he actually said that. But yea if I were to goto VZ I'd get an android because VZ seems to be the premier carrier for android and because if I were to get the trophy I would be dealing with EvDO rev.A which is an absolute joke around here, all the 3G networks here have congestion issues except for cricket,USCC and Tmo.
