Hotspots & Mo' Data from T-Mobile Mobile Broadband but Throttled Free

Verizon Wireless launches its first 4G smartphone, the HTC ThunderBolt, tomorrow, while the competition for 4G data heats up. Overage fees form mobile data plans can be costly, and mobile hotspots cost extra for smartphones. T-Mobile has solutions that could make 4G mobile broadband easier for heavy data users who like to share.

T-Mobile has revamped its data plans for mobile broadband users who use a wireless modem for access, and it has included free hotspot service to share the connection over Wi-Fi with other devices, such as a smartphone, iPod or another computer. Instead of charging overage fees, the data connection will be throttled after the data allotment is used up.
The T-Mobile plans require a contract and include 10GB for $84.99 ($67.99) a month, 5GB for $49.99 ($39.99) a month, and 200MB for $29.99 ($23.99). T-Mobile customers with wireless phone plans get a discount. The discount price shows in parentheses above.

T-Mobile also offers prepaid no-commitment data plans

T-Mobile 4G data appears to be faster than the other networks for data. Smartphones that use the T-Mobile 4G network include the Samsung Galaxy S 4G, T-Mobile myTouch 4G and the T-Mobile G2. Many of these super fast smartphones appear in our Top Ten Best Android an' Droid Phones Now an' Later, as well as the Top Best Coolest Smartphones So Far in 2011.
