E3 2011, Wat? Already? Options

Seems like some E3 vids/trailers are dumping, publishers blowing their loads before the show, so to speak:

NeverDead - Konami



Tomb Raider - Square Enix/Crystal Dynamics

In the conference they said AT&T will be the exclusive carrier for Vita. I used to work for AT&T a couple years ago, and I took this to mean they are going to sell you a data plan or a service plan of some type regardless of what version you get. In the conference it was specifically mentioned you can use the Wifi hotspots free if you already have an AT&T service plan. The wifi only plans were about 20 bucks a month for laptops. I understand most of the popular places with Wifi use AT&T. There are likely going to use the line of "it pulls a lot more data over our network compared to people with laptops browsing the internet, so you have to pay to use online at places like Starbucks." I don't know it just sounded like they want to charge you for mobile access one way or the other, both wifi and 3G.

But if you want to use Wifi via your internet at home that is a different thing. I'm looking at it strictly from the mobile perspective of using the online features almost anywhere, and going off based what was said in the conference.
