    There should be a Chromebook forum

    I can understand not having a Chromebook forum previously, since it was largely only related to Android through the Chrome browser/Google. However, with Chromebooks now having the Playstore available, it would seem that there should be a Chromebook section of the forum.

    Rebate issues?

    I'm curious if people here are having issues getting rebates from Cricket? On another forum, there are several complaining that their rebates have been denied on the basis that they bought their phone outside the rebate dates -- despite that they actually did buy their phone in the right period...

    Uncarrier 5.0 leaked?

    Phone Arena is claiming Uncarrier 5.0 is to include taxes in postpaid rate plans. This would be nice, if true, and seems like it would save most customers 10-20%.

    Looks like Target's Brightspot is trying to compete with VM

    Target's Brightspot Mobile has introduced a new $35 plan that gives 300 minutes talk, unlimited texting, and 3GB of data before throttling -- very similar, but slightly more data, than Virgin Mobile's $35 plan. Is this plan something that would make you think about switching; particularly...

    Deutsche Telekom accepts Softbank's offer to buy T-Mobile

    Interesting news out of Japan this morning, reported by Reuters, that Detutshe Telekom has agreed to sell T-Mobile to Softbank. Be interesting to see how this develops, especially since I believe any merger attempt with Sprint will be denied by the FCC/Justice Department.

    T-Mobile to rollout LTE in 2G areas

    T-Mobile announced today that they will be rolling out LTE in all of the current 2G markets. Half the rollouts are to be finished by the end of the year, with the remainder finished by the middle of next year. Given how the LTE rollout has gone, it wouldn't surprise me to see this completed...

    T-Mobile changing Simple Choice plans

    T-Mobile is now offering 1GB high speed data instead of 500MB on the $50 Simple Choice plan, which is pushing the $60 plan up to 3GB high speed data (up from 2.5GB). Where the change isn't so good is that the $70 plan will no longer be unlimited, instead it will be a 5GB high speed data plan...

    T-Mobile CEO kicked out of AT&T CEO party

    John Legere, T-Mobile's CEO, "crashed" AT&T's CES party, a private Macklemore concert. Apparently Legere had gotten an invitation from Macklemore's agent. After a CNET reported tweeted a picture of him with Legere at the party, AT&T had the T-Mobile CEO removed for "harassing" attendees...

    New York Times article on T-Mobile CEO

    Nice profile of John Legere in today's New York Times: "Brash C.E.O. Keeps the Giants of Mobile Off Balance". I thought people here might be interested. Good to see Legere and T-Mobile getting some good press.

    Is anyone have problems with problems streaming/slow data?

    I've been having problems with my T-Mobile data where I have issues trying to stream video, in some ways it appears my speeds are being throttled. Reading on different forums, I'm seeing others having the same issue. In essence, my data speeds start fine but, after a few seconds, they slow to a...
