Verizon – It has begun

Finally Verizon has begun what was inevitable. An all-in-one cell phone/internet package that includes internet for the home and also a cell phone plan. Why? Because 3G capable phones will use an internet connection for all calls. So if you have a wireless data plan, why not incorporate that into a home internet connection. All the home internet connection will require is a special Verizon wireless card for your computer to receive the Verizon wireless signal.

The good news is that your cell phone plan can include a home internet connection which will save you a few bob. Also if you have a laptop you will be able to get internet access anywhere you can get a cell phone signal.

The bad news is that it looks like Verizon will only permit you a monthly download allowance starting at 50mb for the $39.99 plan and 25 cents for every Mb thereafter, which putting it lightly is…pants.
