The AT&T Debacle Continued…

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

att_your_world_destroyedAs those of you that follow me on twitter and facebook know, I now have a long-standing full-on war with AT&T. This war is one of the major contributors to the sporadic blogging that comes from me. I thought that I would post what was going on here, so that it might serve as a warning for my readers…

So here’s the scoop: around November, I changed my unlimited mobile data plan to what I thought was an unlimited tethering plan, so that I could hook my Blackjack II smartphone up to my laptop and use it as my modem. Bear in mind the unlimited misunderstanding was not an oversight on my part, I was told that it was unlimited by an AT&T salesman.

Howefitz Comes Out Of Exile With A Somewhat Fresh Start

Saturday, January 24th, 2009

As some of you who follow my twitter updates and Facebook status updates know, I’ve been using my AT&T cell phone as my modem. I had what was advertised as an unlimited tethering package. So when I recently moved, I didn’t worry about setting up cable TV, because I could stream my favorite shows online! I’d hook up the laptop to my TV, and we’d catch up with Heroes, Pushing Daisies, Daily Show, etc.

            Incidentally, Hulu is my current favorite site to stream television shows, though Joost has a lot of good stuff too.
