No Unlimited Data Plans for Verizon 4G

When Verizon’s 4G network is finally rolled out it plans to charge phone users differently for its 4G services.

Instead of offering unlimited mobile data plans or per minute voice plans, Verizon is likely to use a system of data “buckets”. These are designed, Verizon says, to make more sense of the huge growth in 4G smartphone related traffic that’s expected as more 4G phones access the mobile networks more often.

Verizon plans to offer 4G in 30 – 40 markets by the end of the year with a complete national 4G network in place by 2013.
