So how long do you have to subscribe to this? I mean.. can you just get the tablet.. sign up.. then cancel the line? No more contracts right? What's the catch.. i would just use it over wifi.

It's ridiculous that Apple purposely removed the 32GB so people would be forced to pay to go to 64GB.
Most other phone vendors start at 32GB.
Maybe it is time to switch. I didn't realize there was such large variability in LTE speed between providers.
I'm hoping for 5G within 2 years:

AT&T had promised a ship date of 9/25 to 10/2 but it arrived 9/25

I assume it's the 16GB.ps9 said:

Yeah.. with 16GB you can even use the 4k video camera.

There are 2 advantages with going on AT&T or TMo with the 6s/6+s as those phones support LTE coverage that VZW and Sprint don't:
For AT&T it's LTE Band 30 (or WCS), basically an additional LTE lane for data.
For TMo, it's Advanced LTE or what they call Extended Range LTE which uses the 700mhz spectrum (also known as Band 12) and gives you better coverage in range wise and inside buildings.

Abou a week or so ago I checked my data usage (unlimited data plan) and saw that I had exceeded the 5gb threshold where att would throttle the lte speed down to .5 Mbps and saw that I was lat 6.5 and wasn't getting throttled. Turns out about three weeks ago att increased the threshold on unlimited data plans to 22gb before the throttling starts. At this point I would never give up my att unlimited plan especially when I pay 65/month.

The question is what are you doing on your phone such that you exceed 5GB so quickly?

I switched to leasing/split payments.
Depending on the phone and the subsidy, it can be cheaper either way but in most cases the math works out almost the same.
The good thing about no contract is you can switch carriers easily but even with contracts, most carriers are offering to pay the termination fees.
We used to have grandfathered unlimited data on AT&T but it was cheaper to sign up for a mobile share plan.
If you have Wifi all over the place (work and home), most people don't really use more than 2GB of data a month (unless you're qwerdata).
