I think that's mostly a US thing. Here in the UK it doesn't seem to be possible to get unmetered internet usage on a mobile phone, at least not without paying truly staggering fees.
(Obviously most of the carriers *claim* that their data plan is unlimited, but usually that means up to 512MB/month, maybe 1GB if you're lucky. T-Mobile are ahead of the pack in that their smallprint notes that your limit is 3GB if you have an Android phone, and that's a large enough limit that I really don't have to worry about going over it.)
