People power FTW! T-Mobile originally intended to slow down folks who eat up more than 1GB of their wireless bandwidth even though one is subscribing to an unlimited data plan, and have backtracked on that decision with the following statement :-
“Our goal, when the T-Mobile G1 becomes available in October, is to provide affordable, high-speed data service allowing customers to experience the full data capabilities of the device and our 3G network. At the same time, we have a responsibility to provide the best network experience for all of our customers so we reserve the right to temporarily reduce data throughput for a small fraction of our customers who have excessive or disproportionate usage that interferes with our network performance or our ability to provide quality service to all of our customers. We removed the 1GB soft limit from our policy statement, and we are confident that T-Mobile G1 customers will enjoy the high speed of data access over our 3G network. The specific terms for our new data plans are still being reviewed and once they are final we will be certain to share this broadly with current customers and potential new customers.”
Well, the term "abuse" has many gray areas, so hopefully T-Mobile will have a definition that leans more towards the customers' advantage than theirs.
