The conditions of the deal/s may have changed since the initial publishing of this post.
T-Mobile has rolled out a couple of deals for the upcoming holiday season. Starting this Friday, T-Mobile subscribers with a qualifying data plan can receive a 7-inch Alcatel OneTouch Pop 7 Android tablet for free. Well, actually you are responsible for the sales tax. Then on Saturday, the deal opens up to new T-Mobile subscribers who sign up for a new data plan. If you walk away from T-Mobile before 24 months has gone by, you will owe the carrier $168 for the tablet.
The Alcatel OneTouch Pop 7 features a 7-inch screen with resolution of 1024 x 600, and is powered by an MT8312 CPU from MediaTek. The dual-core 1.3GHz processor powers the slate, while the Mali-400 handles graphics. The back and front-facing cameras weigh in at 2MP and .3MP, respectively. The tablet is equipped with a 3220mAh battery, and Android 4.2 is pre-installed.
Today, T-Mobile announced its second holiday deal. For $5 a month, T-Mobile subscribers in the states can have unlimited calling to landlines in more than 70 countries. The plan covers up to ten lines. Or, you can pay $10 a month and make unlimited calls to a mobile phone in up to 30 countries, and have 1000 minutes to use on calls to mobile phones in Mexico. And you also get the unlimited calling to landlines in more than 70 countries. This plan is also available on up to ten lines.
"The old-guard carriers never take a holiday from sticking it to their customers. These guys have the gall to gouge you with fat charges every time you reach out to family outside the U.S. — even during the holiday season. How is that anything but pure humbug and greed? At T-Mobile, you can talk day and night without ever worrying about extra charges or overages."-John Legere, CEO, T-Mobile
