I have noticed looking at all the Cell phone companies that they are charging ridiculous prices to use the wireless web right now. This makes it kinda inconvenient for people to want to use bluetooth to connect say their T68i and Palm Tungsten T together to the internet. I have Cingular as my provider and they want to charge like $8 a month for 1MB!!! :eek:. The best provider for someone that wants to use this service a lot is probably Sprint because they offer like 20MB for $40 a month. This is just ridiculous for most people though who would only use the service to check email every now and then and maybe get some movie times or like stock prices. Right now I think that these companies need to realize that its almost just a novelty so they would be a lot better off giving like 100MB a month for $5 or something like that. At least give people the chance to see that it can be fun and cool to use. I mean right now you only get like 30kb/s :p. You can max out the cingular limit in about 30 seconds.
