That's true, I'm basically doing that now. Originally Posted By: robricc I don't know the usage details of the other phone(s) in your family plan, but T-Mobile is about to do 2 lines unlimited... I hadn't thought about this, but I'm curious about what they'd call this. Will it be their "unlimited unlimited" plan? _________________________ Matt

That's actually not that bad, and I rarely hit that amount in the past year. I'll hit it even less often now that rdio won't count against my cap (hooray for potential net neutrality violations!), and now that I've told my podcast client to only download shows over WiFi. I don't know the usage details of the other phone(s) in your family plan, but T-Mobile is about to do 2 lines unlimited (each with 5GB tethering) for $100. $40 per line after the initial two. Seems like something to consider switching to if you're paying $60 for 3GB now. News: http://www.tmonews.com/2014/12/t-mobile-...4-for-100-deal/ This is strange to me, since this is basically what I've had for over a year. $80 for two lines plus $20 each for unlimited data.

So you're paying $120/month for 2 lines unlimited? The new promotion would be $100/month. You're likely grandfathered with an old rate. Unlimited data was a $20 add-on when T-Mobile started offering the Simple Choice plans. It's now a $30 add-on. At yesterday's rates, that would have made the 2-line unlimited family plan $140 per month. _________________________ -Rob Riccardelli 80GB 16MB MK2 090000736

Hmmmm....
