Sorry to disagree, but Cingular used to have ads bragging they had the biggest smartphone selection of any carrier at the time. When I got service, Windows Mobile phones and Blackberrys were sold as Smartphones. This was all before AT&T merged with Cingular and before any iPhone or Android. Yes they offered unlimited data, and tethering on one plan. It's just a fact. Not sure why you and others are trying to mislead people.
