If you have 'unlimited data' with AT&T or Verizon and use tethering much, expect a courtesy letter telling you to purchase a data plan that includes tethering or cease and desist on the tethering.

Verizon LTE tethering plan is $30 when you add it to an LTE phone like the iPhone 5 that is still on an unlimited plan. Good news is that the tethering data is also unlimited and with the 22% FedEx discount, it comes out to $23.40. Worth it for me to have unlimited tethering for my wifi-only iPad and up to 4 other devices simultaneously (i.e. kid's iPods when we are traveling). Just checked my data usage and I am at 12.8 GB with 9 days left in my billing cycle. So far, Verizon is holding true to their policy of not throttling LTE data.

IPad Schmipad...I do not want to carry the company's crap around again.

If it aint broke, don't fix it. Just another company 'have to' item. Wonder if I can ignore this one too.

No private email, no private browsing. No internet shopping, nothing......As someone put it in an earlier post Big brother is watching. The company iPad is FedEx property and thus they own everything on it......be wary my friends

Really? Darn. I thought I found a solution since my neighbor changed his wifi password

Anyone know if the company is going to issue bluetooth GPS antennas? I've used the 99$ Dual model before with JeppFD and it is perfect for enroute and taxi...although I know we can only use it for enroute at FDX for now. Thanks.
