Verizon iPad and New AT&T Data Plans

2010-06-02
hello and welcome to this episode of inside tech today we're going to be taking a look at quite a few things including the iPad perhaps going to verizon I'm also going to take a look at a couple things from d8 including the Steve Jobs interview which really brought a la light on a couple things as well as perhaps we have some pictures of the final shipping version of xbox 360 natal lastly we're going to go over the summer complicated new data plans from AT&T so if you have an iPhone or iPad or really any a teaching foam that needs a data plan doesn't want stay tuned anyway let's get this one started okay guys let's begin with one of the Baker stores which is that the ipad might possibly be going to a verizon so guys there's a lot of different reasons behind this i'll go ahead and go over what all started off boy genius report just reported that they had a high-level source they trust a lot that said that verizon is currently testing a cdma which is the kind of network the verizon is they're testing out testing an ipad with that so guys this is pretty big news i mean we've heard ipad you know i mean iphone rumors going to verizon which seemed to be getting more and more and more likely i mean it is looking pretty pretty confident that there will be an iphone on verizon but now they're talking about the ipad might be going to verizon as well now of course I've has a little bit differently of course you know it's not like with the iphone where you can't get you know an unlocked iphone or whatever really you have to get it racing to hear whatever where's near the ipad anybody get a Wi-Fi model so the 3g is not a huge deal but it's still definitely something you want to keep an eye on now kind of linking into this was last night the d8 was that Steve Jobs did an interview which is pretty rare klien on we talked about ton of stuff guys I definite recommend go ahead check out the link in the description go ahead there's a bunch of video highlights from the whole event you know there's a lot of stuff he talked about not only even try to get everything but one of the more interesting things I thought was that they started out asking him some guy was like he lived in Houston and he was saying basically that you know like can't go one minute without you know talking on it without a drop call on his iPhone and you know Steve just basically just said yeah I know their work they're working on it you know you may actually gotten a couple jobs in on 18 teams like you know things get worse than they get better and they're about to get way way better um so guys there's a lot of things but one of the interesting things was that they asked him do you see a you know a benefit of having more than one carrier in the US he said yeah me and they're like well maybe will that be happening soon he's like you know I can't comment on that um so that guy that's um you know it might not sound like a lot Steve Jobs he's very you know cut and dry usually he'll usually say no that's not going to happen or you know he'll be a lot more firm than it might be a possibility so guys I really expect between you know that brings a lot more credibility to both iPhone and iPad possibly coming to verizon in my opinion another thing from d8 is that that project natal on the hands-free motion control xbox 360 we're showing off yet again sport but this time it just might be the final shipping version so as you guys can see in the pictures here it looks very similar to what we've seen in the past um you know it's going to be a probably about a foot putting half long I'm going to have a couple of cameras and sensors on it but guys it looks pretty cool now of course this is what we've seen and it's very very likely that we will have full details price all kind of stuff at e3 this year which in just a couple of just couple weeks I believe but the main thing really is that the price we've talked about the price and a lot of people seem to think that it will be a lot of money after $150 of her you can get it with like that xbox 360 arcade which would be three hundred dollars um natal is really great and to be honest I don't say I mean the amount of tech that's involved with it that those are those of prices that make sense you know for the money part but guys I don't know if I can see it in some a ton of them we have whipped with it being bad expensive ok guys so now I'm going to take a look at the new AT&T data plans now they've really just changed up a lot gone is the standard you know thirty dollars for unloaded data although if you do have that plan currently you can still keep it but now they have two new plans the data plus and the data pro okay so the data plus is somewhat similar to what you get on the ipod ipad right now basically you pay fifteen dollars a month 200 megabytes of cap today a pro plan you get 20 it's $25 it's a 2 gigabytes plan so guys this might seem that seems so great but then you know you look into it naturally as per 2 d's on now with the overage you actually it's a pretty good deal if you go Oh at two gigabyte cap you know sometimes you know other data plans you actually get charged a ton of money they're actually not going to charge that much they will charge you ten dollars more for every gift for another gigabyte and if you need more than that and they'll charge another ten dollars on top of that so guys it's not like you know some plans where you know you go over the two gigabytes you go to point zero zero one day bites you guys fifty dollars extra so it's pretty decent now that's the last thing which is lumped in with all of this that the iphone is finally getting tethering for sure so basically it's very simple with the date of pro plan you get for twenty dollars go ahead and can have your iphone tether so this would be on top of the $25 so guys if you have an iPhone or any other fun but it's you know obviously the iphones probably got to be the biggest one for $45 can get the data pro plan with two gigabytes a month and you can also go ahead and have it tethered and that's it for this episode of inside k like thank you for watching I've got a question for you guys what are your thoughts on the verizon iPad would that make you more be more likely to go ahead and buy an ipad you know do is that one major reason why you can want to get an ipad 3 cheese because you don't want it on AT&T jessalyn guys let me know in the comments personally I don't think the ipad 3g play on ATT it used to be not so bad now i'm a little unsure about it now I like unlimited data that's that's just something I like but guys you just let me know in the comments what you know it would take for you to get a verizon iPad anyway guys thanks for watching you
