AT&T has announced that it will make its Mobile Share plans available starting August 23. Announced in July, the plans are designed for customers with multiple devices, and offer a set amount of data and unlimited talk and text; an additional fee is charged for each device on the plan. Plans start at $40 for 1GB of monthly data and go up to $200 for 20GB, while the cost of adding each smartphone to the plan varies based on the amount of data included—each smartphone costs $45 on the 1GB plan, but only $30 when you choose one of the three most expensive plans. In addition, customers can add basic phones to their plans for $30 a month, laptops, netbooks, and LaptopConnect cards for $20 a month, and, most importantly for iPad users, tablets and gaming devices for just $10 a month; additional data will be charged at a rate of $15 per GB.
