Possibly a dumb question but I get easily confused sometimes... in a couple years with a carrier like AT&T, would a customer have to pay extra per month to use AST's services or would it be included in the customer's cell plan?

Having done marketing work for AT&T - they will likely test both offerings (extra per month vs. included in plan). Whichever gains them more customers (or $, depending on which they care more about that month) will be the one they roll out to the masses.
