AT&T has announced two new international data plans for iPhone users traveling abroad. The new plans, which offer 100MB and 200MB of international data and cost $120 and $200 per month, respectively, join the company’s current international plans for smartphones, which offer 20MB and 50MB in the same countries. “AT&T has worked diligently to provide affordable options for international roaming because the feature-rich mobile experience of iPhone is indispensable to users,” said Bill Hague, executive vice president of International for AT&T’s wireless operations. “With these new international data plans, iPhone users can access more data in more countries for less cost.” AT&T says customers can make calls in more than 200 countries and access the Internet in more than 150 countries, more than 60 of which offer 3G coverage.
