   Of course it matters. I can't believe you said that. Some cellular plans   
   have penalties for "excess usage" that are horrific.  I think AT&T (for   
   example only) charges $10/GB after your allotment is used up.   
      
   Your second statement is pure speculation.  A clean (5 bar) 4G   
   connection may provide an equal speed to a customers home connection.   
   Furthermore, the cut-over could happen at a moment when the customer is   
   not actively pulling data. It would appear to be seamless.   
      
   My statement specifically said "unless your router can notify you"
