    What does the average data plan cost per GB in the states. Asking because here in canada it looks like i will be charged $60/mo for 6GB. I think this is outragous. In a year I could buy 2 more playbooksor finally get my brakes fixed.

    First, please stay on your side of the border until your brakes are fixed!

    Data rates are changing. All told for phone and bb-data-plan I pay about $60 per month. So far my Data is "unlimited" with Verizon. I have not really investigated what the options for specific allotments of data are monthly. You might be able to visit their sites and see.

    The US always seem to have better plans because they have more competition. I'm with Bell but have a grandfathered $55 unlimited data plan which they keep trying to get me off of. The kick in the is they charge extra for tethering with my unlimited plan, but if I switch to their 6g plan they include tethering...

    Given that its also a shared plan, I think this is a good choice for non grandfathered peeps. I'm weighing my options on this as PB LTE is out in 2 days and my little 1 gig shared package will not be enough for my new toy.

    And it's......Maarican not amarican if using the slang. (all due respect to our brethren south of the 49)

    Actually, seeing the title again (with its, well, odd spelling), I was thinking .... "Hmm, even a Canadian refers to US as America as if Canada were in some far off hemisphere!"

    I would advise you to call them again. Telus 6gb with voice plan is 65.00 / month.
