.....will I be able to get on their unlimited 4G data plan? Or is the Unlimited 4G data plan *only* for buying their smartphones? Is it worth getting their smartphones, and then tethering to a tablet?

At this point, yes - all smartphones (i.e., Android, Blackberry, WebOS, iPhone, and WP7, if they have any of those) on Verizon require the $30 unlimited plan. There is a rumor that Verizon will introduce capped plans this summer and remove the unlimited option, but that is still just a rumor.
You must get the 30 dollar plan unfortunately

I thought you could use the phone without any data, but when you renew, they make you get the data package.

You cannot activate a smartphone on Verizon without the unlimited data plan. Even if you have a contract already, once you try to activate the phone you will be required to add the data plan.
I suppose you could use the phone to dial 911...
Anyone knows if we can keep the unlimited grandfathered data plan for LTE? I'm thinking about the skyrocket.

i have not heard of a separate LTE plan but maybe I missed that memo.

LTE Data Plans
Customers can choose from tiered data plans starting as low as $15 per month. Existing smartphone customers do not have to make changes to their data plan.

guys, i just got the phone today, i have been using Iphone 4s , i put my 4s sim card in the s3 but there was no internet conection , voice call and wifi are working fine, i got the S3 was for my for second line
Call at&t (611) and tell them to update your iPhone data plan to a LTE plan.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
i am worry if i call them i would lose my iphone unlimitted data plan, i though it will works if you have any smart phone plans
Just tell them you need the plan changed to LTE, but want to keep unlimited. I had an unlimited iPhone plan from a 3GS and have been transitioned to a normal 4g/hspa+ plan for a Titan, to an LTE plan for the GS3 and haven't lost unlimited.
^^^^ +1. This.
You will NOT lose unlimited. Just say "I need to update my data plan to unlimited LTE please".....almost everyone on XDA (or those who still have unlimited) have done this many times. No worries.

No problem, they will keep you on the unlimited plan -

Unlimited will be yours until either you remove it or when at&t pulls a Verizon and makes you give it up when upgrading ...and yes, chances are your data isn't working because you aren't on LTE.

I'm getting a used Vibrant and i was planning on using it on AT&T, but since i have a go phone i was wondering if i could switch to the unlimited plan and get unlimited DATA since its not a AT&T branded phone? Thank you
Hoping someone could help me, thanks
I highly don't recommend this. You'd have to unlock your vibrant to even work with at&t, but even then, this doesn't sound like a good idea. Maybe try a captivate?

By the way, what are you asking? Non-at&t phones have nothing to do with the plan...

Actually, a non-AT&T phone has EVERYTHING to do with getting data. If you use an AT&T Android(like the Captivate), they won't let you access data. Data is blocked for AT&T smartphones on the $50 unlimited GoPhone plan.
So, if you want data on the $50 unlimited plan, you MUST use a non-AT&T phone. The Vibrant is a good choice. It supports the AT&T 3G bands.

just go with net10 or straighttalk...at&t bands, and unlimited everything for approx $45 a month.
I've bounced my vibrant around different at&t mvno's for a couple years now with no problems (short of the mvno's themselves...service/data has been stellar).
been with net10 for a few months now, and so far they've been the easiest and most professional mvno to deal with...their unlimited plan is actualIy better than their parent at&t's for regional use imo....highly recommend them if you are in an area with crappy tmo coverage (like me), or are just tired of tmo.
I'm thinking about upgrading to this phone mainly because I have heard Verizon is offering free mobile hotspot for this device.
Does anybody know this to be true?

I have the family plan with unlimited data grandfathered in,for me.
Is that the same as shared plan?
Sent from my HTC Droid Incredible 2 using xda premium
No. If you have unlimited data you either have to pay for mobile hot spot or change your data plan to one of the new shared plans.
Or root your phone
