There are a lot of details in Verizon‘s new Share Everything data, voice and text sharing plans, some of which are mentioned in footnotes on Verizon’s Web site (pdf format).
Here, Computerworld attempts to explain it for you.
What’s new? In simple terms, Verizon will launch on June 28 Share Everything Plans that share unlimited voice and texting across all the devices on a customer’s account. Data will also be shared for up to 10 of those devices, including smartphones and tablets.
Verizon will charge a monthly line access charge per device, ranging from $10 for a tablet to $40 for a smartphone. Basic cell phones will be $30 a month, while Wi-Fi access devices, netbooks and notebooks will be $20 a month.
On top of that, data service will be charged at a rate starting at $50 for 1 GB per month, which can be shared across 10 devices. The rates go up as follows: 2GB for $60; 4 GB for $70; 6 GB for $80; 8 GB for $90 and 10 GB for $100. There is an overage charge of $15 for each 1 GB of data service.
