411 is available with both. But you may have to indure some ad messages with both.

One of the better 411 services I have come across that has almost no ads is Microsoft's Bing-411 service. Along with standard 411 services it also gives you weather, stocks quotes, sports scores, etc. Plus it can text you any of the info you requested.

Does anyone know about data speeds and caps?

Does anyone know about data speeds and caps?

If buy-a-sim proves to be identical to the ST Nokia AT&T sim-swap experience then:

With the AT&T SIM you receive the BEST that AT&T offers anyone (but Not LTE) with a cap of 2gb (some have claimed it to be higher if you don`t appear to be breaking the T&C).
This is the first time for an Unlocked T-Mobile SIM so no one knows exactly what to expect.

You can learn much more by reading the identical thread on the ST forum.
Even Jimates is back posting again on that thread.

So it appears users don't have too much problems with their data connections as opposed to Straight Talk. I don't see as many threads about data problems, correct me if im wrong.

I'd imagine the ratio of folks activating ST SIMs vs Net 10 Unlimited is about 10,000:1 just a rough guess. That might explain it.

Sure makes it difficult to get any sort of feel for what differences (if any) there would be between Net10 and ST. I'm considering getting a Net10 sim, but if data limitations are as stringent as they are with ST then I'm not so sure if I want to go ahead with it.

There is no reason to believe there is any difference between ST and NT other than the airtime they use. You should find the SIM`s are identical and also the service. The recommendation is make your decision between the two based on which airtime you feel is best for you.

Since no one had used T-Mobile service with an unlocked SIM before 2/7 no one knows the data limits yet.

Yeah, I was reading through some of the more recent posts (the last 10 pages) in the ST BYOD thread. I think I'll keep on eye on what the Tmo sim users say.
