FMCA is offering a 25G unlimited data plan through Verizon. Cost is $49.95 per month. You also get a Jetpack for $.01. Getting the Jetpack requires a 2 year commitment.

This really is NOT an unlimited plan. The FMCA plan is Hard Throttled at 25Gb down to dial up speeds making the unit nearly useless for a modern internet connection. It's a good plan if you just think of it as a 25Gb plan and not unlimited.
I know of the hard throttle but only have hit it once in the last 6 months. When that happened we fell back on using the 16G data on our phones. We don't stream video, we have satellite for that, nor play games. Our usage is typical surfing, email etc.
So this plan works well for us.
