thanks

Thankfully I still have my unlimited data through verizon!

Does this work on the BRZ nav? I knew they were supposed to add it but haven't been able to get conformation that it made it in.

so it doesnt come on the brz audio unit?

I thought they did away with that? Not that it matters; 2gb/mo is still an absurdly large amount of data transfer.

It should be a source below satellite radio. Does the manual say anything about it?

If you open the app on your phone and then plug it into the radio it should list your favorite stations

They did, but I had the account before they got rid of it. I'm allowed to keep it as long as I don't change my contract. Even when I upgraded to a new phone I was able to keep it. I don't know if I'll be able to keep it when I get my next one though.

Streaming radio in the car uses it up fast. Since I started using spotify I've been over 2gb every month.

Using my phones connection I've pushed over 15GB/mo. Perhaps you just don't use what you pay for.

Got the Aha app on my phone... I wasn't really blown away by it but I guess I'll have to wait and see if it does something special when it interfaces with the BRZ.

I'm there with you.. for now ...

But I think this is total BS:

So if you get the discount on a new phone - which is why you always signed a 2-year contract - you ALSO lose your unlimited data. I see no reason to sign a contract if I have to pay full price for a device I WILL exceed my data cap on each month. As was mentioned previously, 2GB (even 4) is nothing when you're streaming media... ESPECIALLY with 4G connection speeds.

I'm quite unhappy with Verizon for this change. :mad0260:

That's unfortunate. Although I never really use my phone in the car to listen to music (I have an almost full 64GB iPod Touch for that), it would be nice to not have to worry about going over usage. Although, my usual average for data a month is just under a gig.

If I stream music, it's usually the Trance channel from DI.FM. Maybe I'll go with Sirius with this car, but they only really have 1 electronic station I like. :(
