AT&T Loves iPhone Users, Increases DataPro Plan to 4GB

It looks like AT&T keeps saying “thank you” to loyal iPhone users. As you can see in the screenshot above, some users are receiving a message from the carrier about the automatic increase of the DataPro Tethering Plan from 2GB to 4GB. The monthly plan won’t change, and no action is required from users. A similar change in the DataPro plan was spotted by Cult of Mac earlier today, though it appears AT&T has started sending SMS notices this afternoon.

The change clearly is a move by AT&T to face the buzz generated from the Verizon iPhone, and keep users happy on their network. AT&T’s website doesn’t provide any info on this change at the moment, and it’s unclear whether all iPhone users are getting upgraded to 4GB or just a small section.
