It wasn't that long ago that AT&T got rid of its unlimited data plan option, but they haven't really been making a huge push to make customers aware of their new data plans. That will all change soon according to Engadget, as they have received a photo from an anonymous tipster showing off new plan bundles that will reportedly make their debut on July 25th. The new bundles don't bring much change from the old ones, save for the fact that AT&T will be pushing the new data plans onto its customers. When it comes to text messaging, your only choices seem to be unlimited or pay-per-use with the new plans, but perhaps AT&T will allow other choices when the new plans launch. It looks like the new plans won't offer any real savings over what you can get now, so AT&T is just streamlining it offerings and moving customers to its new plans.
It's not really a surprise that AT&T is trying to get customers to switch to its new data plans. After all, this means customers will (potentially) be using less data and cause less congestion, all while saving the customers a few bucks. It's also not huge news that ATT wants people to subscribe to unlimited messaging plans. They do make carriers a ton of money, after all, since texts are very small in size. Have any of you AT&T customers switched to a DataPlus or DataPro plan or will they have to pry your unlimited data from your cold, dead hands?
