iPad 3G Data Plan Is Truly Unlimited

That's cool. I doubt I'd go over 5GB, but who knows.
Bad news from the same blog, though - you can't upgrade a 250MB plan to unlimited within the same month, you'd just have to buy an unlimited plan on top of the 250MB plan if you realize you need more in the middle of the month.

If this weren't the case, there would be no incentive to buy the unlimited plan straight off the bat.. It needs to be this way IMO otherwise the price of the unlimited data plan would increase.
My interpretation
The way I interpreted it, the plan is basically like a pre-paid phone plan, where you get 250MB and/or 1 month, whichever ends first. So i took it to be that if i started with the 250 MB plan on May 1, and then on May 21, I ran out, I could either restart the 250 MB plan for $15 or jump to the unlimited plan for $30. Both of these options would reset the date to starting on May 21 and expiring on June 21.
I could be wrong about that, but thats the way that I interpreted it.
