CNet: AT&T/Verizon raise prices, hidden under voice plan cuts

MaBell & Veriwi have both dropped their unlimited calling packages, hoisted as a price war and giving more value for the consumer.

At the same time, they are now going to require people with quick messaging phones (ie LG Neon & LG Envy) to have a data plan. Great. So the Samsung Impression I bought to AVOID a data plan & the MotoQ we bought my wife to AVOID a data plan (by buying it unlocked) may now require one? Thanks AT&T.

In related news, no similar announcement from T-Mobile or Sprint, who are both looking like tastier carriers.
