  they wat m8

  140$/TB?

  SL and others purchase BW at ~2$/Mbit (6$/TB) with global commit across all DCs - That pricing is INSANE

  Looks like they took a note from Comcast's book. Comcast charges $10 per 50GB over your 300GB data cap.

  I hope you understand the logistical challenges of delivering mobile data. It's a world apart from cabled networks.

  I'm sure there are carriers about offering it for less than that.
