I find their decision to make 4G data consumption unlimited from the start very intriguing. I am curious how wide spread that model will become globally as 4G expands and whether the move to 4G, with its mobile video potential, will be the caveat to unlimited data consumption in geographies that are well entrenched with limited data consumption models. Several efficiencies exist for the deployment of 4G networks that did not for 3G deployments, namely overlay on existing 3G infrastructure, that will of course turn 3G service into a commodity faster than its predecessors. Perhaps a better question is just how quickly will all of this occur?
