Recently I was traveling a lot, and therefore making regular use of TMobile tethering (I also have an N1). At one hotel in particular where I had a long term stay the wifi was very slow and intermittent, and so I eventually hit the point - 5GB I think - where TMobile starts throttling bandwidth (supposedly to EDGE speeds, but it felt slower than that).
I recognize that's an unusual amount of usage for one month and I would have gladly paid extra money to TMobile to continue getting full speed data, but they don't even offer the option to do so - I assume because that would require them to admit that the service advertised as 'unlimited 3G' isn't really.
