If you go over the 5gig though you're not connecting at 3G or even 2G - just EDGE. It's waaaay slow.

>That wasn't your question. You didn't specify 3G vs. 4G. I have a 3G phone, so it doesn't really matter to me.

>>T-Mobile's unlimited limit is 5gig - go over that and you're not on 4G, not on 3G, but throttled to EDGE until the next billing cycle. Even those grandfathered have the same problem. So sure it's "unlimited" - but go over the 5gig limit and you're connection is so slow it's useless.

>>EDIT: It is actually possible to bypass t-mobile's throttling. Once you're throttled you have to change your phones APN to the old voicestream one (and change the MMS server too if you want SMS and picture mail to work right) - then once the billing cycle is over put them back to the original tmobile ones.
