I am looking into the Droid X (preloaded with Blockbuster) and have a quick question.

 

With a 5 GB limit....what is the point of BB on demand?  To charge us more when unknowningly go over due to movie watching?

Verizon requires the unlimited data package with the purchase of a Droid X

Is it a "real" unlimited bandwith package, or is it limited to 5 GB?  I didn't think Verizon offered an unlimited data plan.  If so, why cant I get unlimited with my aircard?

 

Can I get a VZW rep to comment on this?  Is it truly unlimited?

Aircard plans are different than smartphone dataplans.

 

Follow this link... look on the right side of the page, and it shows the data packages for smartphones

this is what i was wondering myself whether the unlimited really is unlimited data for smartphones or if unlimited really means 5GB limiit for smartphones.

It is unlimited, what may be throwing you off is that verizon origionally offered the Aircard unlimited and than quietly caped it to 5 GB.

 

Verizon still has a decent deal considering what the other big two companies are offering. ATT caps at 2 GB, while Sprint is unlimited but they have cleverly charged an additional $10 for EVO 4G users "even though 95% of them will never see 4G coverage".

 

Long story short, the Aircard and the phone have different data plans, and as of now, it is truly unlimited for your X.
