So you were under the impression that it was the speed that was listed as being unlimited? That would be nice, but no, it is the amount of data. They make no claims about the speed.

I'm not siding with T-Mo, and I'm not saying it is right, however the answer to why more companies are not sued (and why this lawsuit is going nowhere) is because they DO offer unlimited data. There is no 10GB cap.
The issue here is that after you (consistently) exceed 10GB your data speed decreases, but your data access remains. So unless someone can show where T-Mo stated exactly what data speeds you would be getting with this unlimited data plan, then there is no false advertising. Bad PR yes, false advertising no.

Do you watch Russell Peters and then later expect him to say he was joking? He was talking about how only people with small dicks care about those scanners and then said he signed his for the girls there, obviously jokes.
Kind of the guy who makes bomb jokes in the airport, eh?
Going on a talkshow and making jokes about airport security is completely different from making bomb jokes at an airport.
It was simply a joke story he told for laughs on a talk show. Why so many people thought he was serious is beyond me. This is getting reposted all over the internet for no reason he never expected people to take his joke seriously.
You guys get billed for incoming SMS? How can they justify billing you for something that you have zero control over? (you can choose to answer a call or not, but you can't choose not to receive a text)
SMS Spam should be illegal but so should billing for things that are 100% outside of your control.
You don't get money back, you just get credit to download more tracks and since you were downloading free tracks to begin with that credit is worthless.
I just tried the opt out and don't see what the issue is.
You click 2 links and then you forever go back to the "normal" behaviour for failed DNS lookups. (unless of course you clear your cookies, if you do you just need to click those 2 links again)
1. The iPhone 2 is not coming out. The iPhone 3G is coming out. Those are not the same thing.
2. The original iPhone was sold with the exact same terms. The only difference with the 3G version is that it is being sold much cheaper.
Just because they found out a way to unlock the original version after a while and the haven't found out a way to unlock the 3G version YET doesn't mean anything has changed.

Re: Re: Re: Re: he was joking...
You obviously have not watched the original interview. Obviously nor has all the people that keep reporting this rediculous "news" piece.
Watch the interview, maybe all the laughing after each sentence he says will help you understand.
Re: Re: he was joking...
Has he said so somewhere?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Can I sell my unwanted tracks from a CD?
In what way is the consumer getting ripped off?
You don't get money back, you just get credit to download more tracks and since you were downloading free tracks to begin with that credit is worthless.

If you are curious about the people behind bopaboo, you are just going to have to patient - but it just may surprise you!
hhmmmm?
