Throttling for Broadband2Go 4G Begins in December

[tcomotcom]

VM will begin throttling 4G data for Broadband2Go customers beginning sometime in December. From the announcement:

Once the system is updated, we will begin throughput speed reduction for the Unlimited 4G plans. To ensure all customers have reliable access to data services, we will begin implementation of throughput speed reduction, once the established threshold is reached. This will apply only to plans that include Unlimited 4G data. Speed reduction for Unlimited 3G plans will continue.

More detail is available on the VMUSA website.

This announcement is specific to Broadband2Go. The announcement doesn't say anything about 4G handsets, but I wouldn't be surprised to hear something about that at some point in the future.
