T-Mobile next to bring 3G and Eee PC together

August 29, 2008 2 Comments

Details are still coming in but, T-Mobile are the latest company to offer a netbook with a a 3G modem and data plan. With one of these you should never need to race to a wireless hotspot again to get online and T-Mobile are commiting to the service by announcing in Germany that they are going to be bundling the Asus Eee PC 901 with a 3G modem.

Equally, the details on cost and on the plans available is vague but, expect the Eee PC to be offered at a fraction of the retail price depending on the data plan chosen. It could even be offered for free, we can dream anyway!

    As a U.S. T-Mobile customer, I sincerely hope that model comes to the U.S. as well. As a pay-as-you-go T-Mobile customer, I don’t care about getting the unit for free, but do care about being able to plug in my existing T-Mobile SIM and continue using it unlocked. At present, T-Mobile doesn’t allow me data service via pay-as-you-go, which means My unlocked Palm Centro is only being used as a cell phone and personal information manager, even though it has many Internet-capable features I would use if allowed. So, T-Mobile, if you’re paying attention, please offer this in the U.S., and also to those of your customers who pay full price for unlocked phones so they can use pay-as-you-go.

    In related news, a new T-Mobile cell tower was just approved, to be located about a 1/4 mile from my home, so the signal should be very good by the time this model appears here.
