wow , you must be like cheap but lucky that somebody else pays that bill.

by the way , switch to US Cellular or Verizon or jump back to AT&T
because T-Mobile doesn’t really cover “nationwide”.

With 1200 minutes, 3000 text and 100MB of data, I am really proud to say I can live with that plan and the $29.95 price!

It was very difficult with default settings of ICS 4 to stay under 200Mb. However, getting rid of Amazon Store, Setting Play to Wifi, and Google + changes looks to have done the trick.

I have the 200 MB plan with AT&T and have NEVER gone over. I watch it like a hawk and rely on wifi at home and work. I’m pretty proud of myself lol. Anyway, I can completely relate to this article.

T-Mobile HSPA+42 is some of the fastest mobile web out there. It’s available in most US cities and is cheap. Whatever stupid gauge people use to determine what ‘true 4G’ is it’s fast enough to stream HD video and that’s good enough for me. What’s not to like?

I get unlimited data (throttled after 5 gigs) with unlimited texting and 100 minues. I text and call through groove ip and google voice so I never really go over my voice cap.
