Voted America's least favorite wireless carrier, AT&T is going to do the official evil deed: end unlimited data tethering on all smartphones that aren't using one of its official tethering plans after August 11.

Today's the day Verizon rolls out the formidable Motorola Droid, the most capable contender to the iPhone's king-of-the-hill status yet. Also along for the rollout ride is its lesser Droid mate, the HTC DROID Eris. iPhone haters will be happy...
