T-Mobile has announced that it has eliminated overage charges on its 5GB webConnect mobile broadband service plan for compatible devices. From now on, instead of overage charges the company will throttle users until the next billing cycle, with overage charges still applying on the 200MB plan though they will now be cut in half from current rates.
T-Mobile is also offering a $10 discount on its 5GB monthly webConnect service plan to celebrate the rollout of its HSPA+ network.
Wow, $40 is not a bad price for a datacard with HSPA+ data.
Perhaps, but Sprint Relay Data Only is $30/month, and works officially with 5GB Phone As Modem on Windows Mobile and feature phones.
I’d rather plug a feature phone into a Cradlepoint and save my $10/month and use EV-DO instead. Still, if somehow T-Mobile has better HSPA coverage than you can find on Sprint, then it becomes a better deal.
Assessing HSPA+ vs G4, what do you gentlemen think?
Thank you
HSPA+ has been faster so far. It has a theoretical max of 21 megs, versus the 10 meg theoretical max of Sprints 4G.
There was a pretty good test and comparison of both services done by PC Mag, see the results here:
