[Infowarrior] - Broadband truth in advertising, redux

[Richard Forno]

Just saw a TV ad for 'unlimited mobile broadband' via Cricket for $40/ 
mo.  Sounds awesome, right?   But if you quickly scan the fine print  
during the commercial, Cricket's service, like everyone else, is  
capped at 5GB/mo.  So again, what does "unlimited" mean for mobile  
broadband?  You're not limited to WHEN you can connect to their  
service when in their service area?

This is just the latest marketing scam for the wireless and broadband  
providers.....after all,  it's perfectly legal to say "up to 50GB  
speeds"  in big bold blinking letters but only deliver 15GB regularly,  
with periodic bursts to 40GB.   But that is deemed 'truth' in  
advertising.    Gotta love the lawyers.
