and have not installed it yet because I dont have a good phone signal so activating is a problem...

I was going to get it going though soon, if this was the case I would be furious...if they throttled...I have not heard that from anyone else but who knows with them.

Someone here in this thread says no, not true...hopefully that person is right.
