"... it's a silly distinction..."

Sadly, I don't believe it is a silly distinction.  The plain fact of the
matter is the wireless infrastructure can not support the load the cable
infrastructure can.

Bandwidth limiting I can accept.  Content limiting, in my opinion, should
be verbotin.

But on the other hand, unlimited web access for a phone, but not for a
tethering device makes one wonder.   And the thing is not cheap.   A
monthly allocation of 5 gig is laughable in this day and age.  That's a
mere 7 CDs, or little more than a single DVD.  Only 30 minutes to download
a 700 meg .iso.  Seven downloads, and you are done for the month?
