AT&T is still offering unlimited data plans for the iPad, weeks after the company discontinued its all-you-can-eat offerings, reader Vincent Fox reports.

AT&T discontinued its $29.99 unlimited data plan on June 7, instead offering customers 2GB per month for $25. Customers who signed up for unlimited plans before the June 7 deadline get to keep them.

However, Vincent signed up for his plan this weekend. Vincent writes:

“Today on my iPad 3G, I activated 3G for the first time. The “unlimited” option is still available! This was at 11:10 PST on June 19th 2010, long after the supposed expiration of this option. I purchase my iPad a couple of weeks after launch. Perhaps the older units are still allowed this choice? I was billed $29.99 and it clearly shows I am now on the unlimited plan. Perhaps others can take advantage
of this as well.

Has anyone else been able to activate an unlimited 3G data plan on AT&T?
