It still is unlimited.  You won't be cut off, just slowed down only when there is excess congestion.  Once the congestion is relieved, your speed goes back up.

Hasn't that been what's been happening all along? It happened to everyone at FMCA-Madison, at QZ, at the Gillette Escapade. Hmmmm, does VZ discriminate against RVers?
 
No, that wasn't VZW causing the slowdown, it was all you RVers :)
 
I said  money, not greed. I am not sure how you can differentiate one from the other. The purpose of a business is to make money. The only thing I am accusing Verizon of is that they are being disingenuous when they make the claim about trying to manage their network. What they are really doing is trying to maximize their profits. This is just another redefinition of 'unlimited'. Just like airlines decided that they need to charge a fee for everything they do, phone companies found another way to charge you more for the same thing they deliver (and they can argue that they are doing it for their customers' benefit).

Cool, huh?
