T-Mobile to Bring Flat Rate Data Plan to the UK: Much Rejoicing
Posted by Jonathon Watkins in "OFF-TOPIC" @ 01:00 AM
"T-Mobile have been somewhat blazing-the-trail for Windows Mobile users of late, with their adoption of just about every HTC device under the sun . . . coupled with their impressive 'web-n-walk' and innovative 'FlexT' tariffs. . . . All good I hear you say, but how does this shake up the UK Mobile Data market? Well, if our sources are to be believed, T-Mobile will announce - with some fanfare - a £7.50 per month flat rate data usage plan! Likely subject to a fairly relaxed 'acceptable usage plan' (1GB seems likely), the deal looks set to have Smart device users on other networks migrating in droves. . . [W]ill YOU be jumping ship from your current provider should this deal arrive?"
It's high time something like this came along in the UK. :-) I've previously been with T-Mobile and this may tempt me back to them when my O2 contract is up soon. I've heard about this 'flat rate data' and am keen to explore it's merits. ;-) For those of you already on such flat rate tariffs, is it a 'nice-to-have' or has it become indispensable to you?
