Yeah, here in NZ I'm on one of the heftiest data allowances for mobile - 5GB a month, free talk and text (Text is huge in NZ, I'm not sure about other countries) here and to Australia. I hear other countries have "unlimited" but throttled data packages?? I used to work for a Telco; and it was fascinating to see how rapidly things progress from being a luxury, to a necessity. Mobile data used to be so clunky, inefficient and annoying that nobody used it. Now it's the thing people come into stores to discuss. Calling and texting is a given to be cheap, Data is the last frontier that Telcos (at least in NZ) can make money off - so I can't see us getting unlimited mobile Data in the near future, until they start to fail in convincing people that access to the internet is becoming a utility rather than a luxury. That and our infrastructure wouldn't cop it in it's current state.
