The month of April is almost over, bringing us even closer to WWDC ‘09 and its corresponding keynote. It’s about time for buzz to start ramping up about iPhone 3.0, but there was other news this week that got some attention, too. Read on to find out what it was:

$62,000 to download a movie? That’s what happened to a caller named Alberto, who told his data roaming tale of woe on the air to HLN “money expert” Clark Howard on CNN. Alberto made the grave mistake of downloading Wall-E for his nephew while vacationing in Mexico over his data card and was slapped with a $62,000 bill from his wireless carrier when he returned home.
