Beware Verizon iPhone 4 Users, Chill on your data use

One of the problems that AT&T encountered when they got the iphone was that the phone encourages heavy data use.  Accessing the Internet and Internet linked activities was so easy that many AT&T subscribers did it on a regular basis.  Time has shown that AT&T was ill prepared to handle this surge of data hungry customers.  As of this writing, 2% of Internet usage was done with an iPhone and/or iPad.

Verizon has a plan in place already to make sure you do not use your iPhone too much (so nice of them).  As of the official release of the iphone, Verizon will be throttling the data speed of the top 5% of data users.  What does this mean?  The more data you use, the slower your data transfer speed will be.  Welcome to Verizon
