AT&T New Data Plan Pricing Updated this Sunday

AT&T announced new data plans starting January 22.  Those who already have data plans will be grandfathered and keep their present data plan. If you change to new data plan pricing, you can't switch back to old data plan pricing.  The AT&T website will be updated with the new plans starting on Sunday. AT&T is promoting using Wi-Fi to save data gigabytes.
