Smartphone Thoughts: T-Mobile's New Data Plans

"Just when you thought they couldn’t get any cheaper….T-Mobile is set to completely revamp their data plan lineup with a new pricing scheme that is sure to make subscribers swoon. Beginning tomorrow, September 12th, the big Pink will be dropping updates to their BlackBerry and Total Internet plan offerings. The Total Internet add-on, which includes unlimited web browsing and data service for devices such Wing and Dash, will drop from $29.99 to $19.99. Sweet! The BIS add-on will remain at $19.99 for customers in need of the full BlackBerry email/web browsing experience. For anyone simply looking for an email solution, however, things are about to get very interesting."

Some pretty good news for all you TMO folks. There was one price hike in the mix of price cuts but overall it is a nice thing to see. I have noticed that some of AT&Ts (formally Cingular) rates are lower and they are offering quite a few more options as far as data plans are concerned. I'm not sure if you need to actively change things with TMO or you just get the new price automatically. Something worth checking into.
