To cut the story short for maximum grasp on the topic at hand and easy reading, AT&T subscribers will get free calling and texting to Japan for the whole month of March, while Sprint and Verizon customers will get the same sort of courtesy until April 10th, both wireless and residential for all aforementioned networks. So, uh, T-Mobile, wanna be a humanitarian this time around? Via: VentureBeat

Back in the ‘ol days, you could get an unlimited 3G plan on Sprint with your 3G smartphone for $70. When 4G WiMAX came around for the Epic 4G, Evo 4G, and Evo Shift 4G, the 4G service required a mandatory $10 add-on (why else would you buy a 4G phone to not use the four-geees, eh?). Starting January 30th, the normal “unlimited” package will go up by $10 due to bandwidth and that sort of jazz, for new and upgrading customers. Not such a big deal: it’s just $80 instead of $70 of your hard-earned greens. That means the entire network is balanced-out, in a way. All is well, move along folks. Via:
So this is rather interesting. You have The Samsung Mobile Event on the 8th, you have Windows Phone 7 launching on the 8th, you have several Android devices like the MyTouch 4G launching on the previous week, and if what Sprint is confirming is true, pre-orders for the HTC 7 Pro for Microsoft employees starts on December 8th. I’m just saying, 8 seems to be rather popular.
Yes, RIM has outed that strange-looking 9670 flip phone with Blackberry OS 6, 624MHz processor, a 5 megapixel camera, GPS, and Wi-Fi b/g/n. It contains two screens: one 2.7-inch QVGA on the inside, and on the outside of the flip phone, there’s 2-inch QVGA. It’ll cost you $99 on a 2-year contract from Sprint starting October 31st in either Royal Purple or Steel Gray. Needless to say, would you really buy this Blackberry Style, even though it is one of the least un-stylish smartphones out there? Press release after the chop.
