AT&T (locked and unlocked) vs TMobile (unlocked) - part 2

Am I missing something? This makes the basic AT&T rate with data look like $60 a month compared to $85 each month from TMobile before any discounts

  1. just the two rate plans PLUS the data plan

    Did not see the 19.99 plan, found it as an add-on to a rate plan in the cart as an accesory. thanks for the info. Without any discounts, if there is one on that rate plan, I won’t know till after 5AM in a few hours, that brings it down to $30 less then AT&T’s iPhone plan for 1500 minutes. If its light usaage, then $60 AT&T plan is rack rate a better option on the surface…

  2. $10 per month savings gets a new phone in 24 months which is way better then the iPhone rate plan and having to buy the phone for cash in 24

    It is a very interesting debate. Well since I don’t see a 1.1.2 unlock and from everything talking about dates and weeks, I can only assume the present under the tree has to be 1.1.2. I’ll have to activate it on AT&T because I know she won’t want to keep it in the box and wait till I can hack it and unlock it and all that other fun stuff - thats like giving a kid a puppy…picture and saying its still at the breeder till it wheans off the bitch in 6 weeks.

    Speaking off animals and phones and girls at Christmas - I just love the VZW pony commercial

    dang - tMobile is closed for the holidays today. So my choices are down to
    A - let her activate it tomorrow via iTunes and take it from Steve
    B - let her activate it tomorrow and hope for a hack within the period to get out of the contract within the 30 day period and bite the activation fee
    C - under 3 days and save the activation fee and send it to the people who release the 1.1.2 hack via PayPal Hey going to spend it anyway, so its a benefit to someone
    C - go buy a TMobile cheapo phone to have a SIM on hand, pray for a christmas miracle involving a virgin and no date on Christmas so they have time to release the fix and have the new SIM handy

    Oh well, it’s looking darkest before the dawn, time for some Pennsylvania Dutch original egg nog, with its low 75% alcohol by volume Happy Holidays everyone
