Sony Reveals PS Vita AT&T Data Plans for US

Plan on springing for a 3G PS Vita? With just over a month to go until launch, Sony has revealed data plan pricing in collaboration with roaming partner AT&T.
Here’s the deets: two monthly plans will be on offer, a 250MB data package at $14.99/month and $25 for 2GB. No contract. The data limits are hardly surprising, considering the 20MB cap on downloads that was unearthed earlier.
Suffice to say, we find it hard to justify the extra premium that the 3G Vita commands. Perhaps it’d be worth it if AT&T offered a discount rate on contract, but that’s not happening. Either way, the value is questionable, seeing as 3G connectivity cannot be used for online gaming due to added latency. In fact, unless you fancy using the YouTube-less web browser, we don’t see the point at all.
