AT&T launches oneday tablet data pass, aims to bring LTE to more vehicles

AT&T senior vice president Chris Penrose announced a new $5 day pass for data at the GigaOm Mobilized conference in San Francisco today, with hopes that it'll compete against expensive hotel WiFi for frequent travelers. You can also opt for a $25 for 1GB plan that you can use any time within three months. He also said that the company is hard at work on its connected car strategy, working with BMW, Nissan, Ford and Tesla to bring LTE into those vehicles. It's already announced its GM strategy earlier this year, and Penrose said that it continues to plan to put LTE in GM's entire fleet as early as mid 2014.
