HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ-TV) -- AT&T is making some big changes when it comes to cell phone data plans, and that has some folks pretty darn upset.
The company has announced it is giving up its unlimited data plans for new wireless subscribers. New customers will no longer find a $30 per month price for unlimited data.
Instead they'll get a two tiered pricing option for either 2 megabytes or 2 gigabytes. Each additional gigabyte of data will cost an additional $10.
Current unlimited plan users can keep their same plan. The new system goes into effect next week.

There's a new feature coming to a cell phone near you. It's designed to declutter your life, or at least your wallet.
Companies like cardstar and cardbank are now storing loyalty cards from businesses on cell phones with bar codes.
Loyalty cards are coupons that are marked when you visit a store for a reward after so many purchases.
----------------------
Finally, you see more and more commercials for 3D TVs and Bluray Players, but now there's a new type of 3D glasses that will soon hit the market.
Next generation 3D glasses will work with any TV or computer monitor that's capable of playing 3D movies and shows.
3D at home is a small market, but continues to grow.
Only about 4 million 3D sets will be sold this year out of about 170 million.
