What does AT&T charge more for data?

[PARADA6]

I was with T-mobile before i switch to att, and the unlimited internet was only $6 for my Samsung phone, how come AT&T charge $20 for the data plan? Is the speed different or something else is not the same?

data plans on smart phones are usually more expensive than data plans on basic cell phones. More data is transmitted via email clients, web browsers, etc. on smartphones vs. basic cell phones.

If you think ATT is high, check out Verizon unlimited data $49.00/mn

so let's say one unlocked his phone and use sim card from t-mobile he could use unlimited e-mail and web for just $6? Does t-mobile offers same Edge speed?

Thanks
