So I am in a Conumdrum! :confused:

I am currently an ATT unlimited internet connect person and would like to have the ability to access the ATT hotspots within the expanded ATT network. I was told that my current plan since it is unlimited would not allow me to access the WiFi spots unless I switch to the $60 a month plan (up from $59.99 plan) but that I would go from unlimited internet to 5 GB included in the new plan. I do basic internet access excpet for the occasional times that I use my SlingBox while on the tether. I was wondering what people in the box thing of the 5 GB plan and if that would be enough to do the basics on the internet each month without going over. BTW, I would mainly tether when I had no other means to connect to the internet and only when traveling.

Thanks in advance for yall's advice!

Why let one fly in the puffer and then have the compressed air shoot it back at you?

Speaking of the puffer. Someone stole the can of compressed air from my desk draw. :rolleyes:

I don't think so. I am at 35,383.41 KB (35MB) on my phone/pda for the month already.

I would keep what you have. All the providers have abandoned the unlimited plans and those are far more flexible then the new 5GB plans.

5GB really isn't that much.

Good Evening Box:

The thread on BF to London got me wondering. I am looking at spending some miles for redemption down to beautiful EZE! Any material and/or otherwise noticeable differences in the BF service to deep S.A. compared Europe? I have done the 777 and the 757 from and to LGW and AMS in BF several times I tried to doing some searches using the terms 'Buenos Aires, EZE, 767, BusinessFirst and Business First," but I did not see anything quite on point. Also, I did look at threads from 1998 and 1999, but they did not seem to be as informative as I otherwise might have hoped.;):D Obviously, I know the seats are different on the 762 v. the 777 or the 752, but anything else of interest with respect to BF? The Box's collective wisdom and guidance is requested and welcomed!^

Safe Travels!

I start a thread complaining about staff only to find that DRW was the FO on my flight. Wow, I really can't win at the game of life sometimes.

At least you weren't complaining about flight crew. :D

In other news, hello from scenic Las Cruces. Tomorrow is the second long leg, from here to Junction, Texas. Should be a :rolleyes: time.

On what sign of the TOS line would an embedded photo of a Giraffe attempting to mount a Donkey fall? So far as I can tell, there aren't any lewd exhibitions of Giraffe or Donkey parts visible in said photograph. Indeed, one might credibly explain the photo as an awkward candid shot of a Giraffe that had tripped in a most unfortunate manner.

No. A genuine inquiry. AFAIK, this particular photo has never been posted to FT.
