T-Mobile makes it official, announces the unlimited nationwide 4G data plan

BELLEVUE, Wash. — Aug. 22, 2012 — T-Mobile USA, Inc., today announced an industry first — a truly Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan. Featuring no data caps, speed limits or bill shock, as well as fast, dependable nationwide 4G coverage, T-Mobile’s new Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan offers the ultimate worry-free experience. The new plan is designed to satisfy both data-hungry customers who want to experience all their smartphones are capable of and those wanting the peace of mind of never having to keep track of their data usage.

Today’s smartphones offer amazing experiences, and consumers are increasingly relying on them for everything from navigation, entertainment and shopping to just staying connected. With the introduction of the Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan, T-Mobile® is the only U.S. carrier to empower customers to do what they want, when they want, with their smartphones by making fast, nationwide 4G data accessible for everyone — without limits and at a great value.

For customers seeking an unlimited experience on their smartphones, T-Mobile offers several ways for new and existing customers to take advantage of its Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan. New customers can purchase any smartphone in T-Mobile’s robust lineup of innovative devices or bring their own compatible smartphone and have access to a worry-free unlimited data experience on T-Mobile’s fast nationwide 4G network. Current T-Mobile customers on Classic or Value plans can simply upgrade their existing service by adding an Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan.

The Unlimited Nationwide 4G Data plan will cost $20 per month when added to a Value voice and text plan or $30 per month when added to a Classic voice and text plan. For example, a single line Value plan with unlimited talk and text combined with unlimited nationwide 4G data will cost $69.99 or a single line Classic plan with unlimited talk, unlimited text and unlimited nationwide 4G data will cost $89.99.

Nikon intro’s the powerful and versatile Coolpix P7700 and ultra-mini Coolpix S01
Aside from gushing about the first Android-powered Coolpix S800c camera, Nikon has also introduced two other digital shooters under the Coolpix product line. These are compact and yet seemingly powerful and versatile; the Coolpix P7700 and the Coolpix S01.

First, let’s take a look at the Coolpix P7700. This digital shooter boasts of a sharp 7.1x zoom NIKKOR ED glass lens with maximum aperture of f/2 and a 12.2MP CMOS sensor. Aside from capturing photos which according to Nikon are stunning in sharpness and vivid in color, the camera also records full HD 1080p video. Short of being an entry-level DSLR, the Coolpix P7700 will cater to both point-and-shoot users to professionals looking for a back-up to DSLR cameras.

The Nikon Coolpix S01 on other hand is geared more for you if you’re always on the go and needs to take snaps of anything from time to time. This camera is said to be so slim that it can be slipped into your pocket or purse. Specs-wise, it boasts of a 2.5-inch touchpanel, 10MP CCD sensor, built-in flash, and electornic VR.

The Nikon Coolpix P7700 and Coolpix S01 are expected to hit the market sometime in September for $449.95 and $179.95 respectively.

I'm glad to see somebody is listening to the consumer regarding unlimited Data. It'll be interesting to see how the t-mobile reception is compared to AT&T, here in TX. I will be upgrading to the new Iphone 5...I wonder if T-mobile wouldn't be better than my grandfathered in AT&T.

T-Mobile's network blows, so unlimited means absolutely nothing.

Yes, but every month when I max out my data on my Iphone and get "throttled back", the phone becomes completely useless...even the most basic apps (maps) crash since there's almost no data available.

I've only ever been with Tim-Mobile. They have always been the lower priced provider, and I like the HTC & Samsung phones they offer.

Although they are ever expanding their coverage area.... it is true that their coverage can be spotty. They are great in most large cities. As you leave town... as long as you're nead a major interstate - you'll be fine. But, off the beaten path - you will have areas of no/limited coverage.

Funny, I've had T-mobile for 11 years and never had any sort of issue. In fact, I can probably count on both of my hands the number of times I've had any sort of dropped calls. I'd have a pretty hard time ever switching networks unless TMo did something monumentally stupid.

I evaluated T-Mobile and got shit coverage, which is why I went back to Verizon, even though I hate this company with every ounce of my being, they do still have the best network.

I'm a VERY fortunate to have the coveted unlimited 4G. :yesnod:

Where were you? When I lived in St. Pete and Orlando, I always had great coverage in all the surrounding areas.

When I switched, it was Fort Myers and Fort Lauderdale. Now it's Fort Myers and Sarasota. Fort Myers, where I live, was major suckage.
