I can confirm that you can no longer get unlimited MediaNet on Pick Your Plan either. I attempted to set up a 2nd generation iPhone in iTunes yesterday and was advised that I needed to be post paid or an existing customer. Also speaking with a rep at AT&T sales, I was told there is no unlimited media net on any GoPhone plans right now, that it used to be an option but isn’t any longer.

This is both PAYG and PYP.

T-Mobile prepaid is working with the APN hack (see the T-Mobile forum). Other than that… Sprint’s $20/month developer plan (or $30/month Sprint Relay plans) are the best deals out there right now.

The work arounds continue. Anyone figured out a good inexpensive data plan yet to try to replace the $20 deal?

I’m going to Florida this weekend for 3 weeks holidays. If I buy a new GoPhone Pay As You Go SIM card (SIM only), can I still add the unlimited package? (before Nov. 12)
Thanks!

I knew this had to come to an end sooner or later. People paying so much for iPhones and then getting screwed for their loyalty. Then the ppl unlocking them and doing this were getting rewarded. Ahhh well, it was nice well it lasted.

I am really disappointed with ATT taking the unlimited media net out of the pay as you go feature. I am enjoying it as it is now and this is making me consider of moving to another provider.Thanks for this forum.

Yes, there are workflows to do so in the PhoneNews.com Forums. It does require modifying hidden settings inside of your phone, and is not supported by Verizon Wireless.
