What's going on with the PDA data plans? Just rewrite the paragraph, don't do the update thing. So is the price going up to $49.99 or is there a new 20mb plan for $39 or is it $29? i'm confuséd]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ShortFuse]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 10th 2007 12:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T's new text plans not quite unlimited]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/04/10/atandts-new-text-plans-not-quite-unlimited/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/04/10/atandts-new-text-plans-not-quite-unlimited/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'll bet this change is an advance change for the benefit iPhone users so that the updated prices aren't directly associated with the iPhone release.
