My Verizon Blackberry plan says unlimited data. Including the tether.


Its 5GB, trust me on that one.  Former roommate worked for Verizon Wireless as a high level blackberry tech in the 
local call center - they quietly added the cap to all plans over the past year after adding all these little 
disclaimers to sales docs, websites, etc.

She came home and warned us one day that our EVDO modem on the business account was now capped, even though it was 
originally 'unlimited'. IIRC, they'll start billing you per megabyte or gigabyte after 5GB. I've not had an 
oppertunity to test this, so I'm only going by what I was told.

IIRC, Clear's 4G service has no monthly cap.

It does, 5GB as well, but I believe they throttle you down majorly once you hit the cap.  I'll keep my eyes on the 
fine print next time I see a Clear commercial here.
