6 commentsBut keep in mind that US market is unique, as it's extremely overpriced with very poor quality/coverage. Looks like average price in the US is $6.00/GB. Compare this to countries like Israel ($0.02/GB) or Colombia ($0.20/GB). Whenever I travel, I usually have a better coverage and faster connection in a jungle than downtown SF.
Cheapest unlimited, $120/mo.
Then "Mobile Regional", $150/mo.
I cannot find out what "regional" means, what the limitations would be.
Anyhow, it seems like a fair offer
