I remember a few months back hearing about a guy who used his phone as basiclly a router and was charged a huge amount for Internet use even though he had an unlimited data plan. I was just curious if any "heavey users" have been charged at all by ATT for over usage. I use PDANet everyday for a few hours, not heavey usage just checking twitter and reading news articles and sitting on adium never any video streaming or anything like that. I was just curious if people have ever been charged for their "unlimited" data plan.

Oh I heard about the guy from the podcast Buzz Out Loud. Didn't know if that would help someone else recall the circumstances of the charges.
 
I've also heard that 'Unlimited' means 5GB/month MAX. Over that and it is possible that your subscription will be canceled out.
