Very true on all of your points. And I honestly don't know how Verizon handles it. I know AT&T's "Unlimited" plan is sold as unlimited with the thought that you're only going to be doing certain things on your phone. So they've build out the infrastructure to support so much bandwidth. It is unlimited, but it's really not for that reason :) That's why they force you to go to a capped plan when you enable tethering. I just assumed the other carriers were doing similar things.
<heh> I would advise against extrapolating the crappy way AT&T decides to build out their network and treat their "customers" to the rest of the civilized world. :)
One of my favorite comments I recall seeing on the iPhone 4 antenna issue was the fact that (most) everyone testing the early units was in Silicon Valley, where AT&T dropping your call was pretty much a foregone conclusion...bad antenna or not. :)
