T-Mobile’s started selling the Samsung Galaxy Tab Android tablet, offering it alongside a few pay-as-you-go tariffs that give buyers a mobile broadband data allowance for 3G web use.
The tariffs let you pay £2 a day if you’re a casual/occasional user, £7 for a week of connectivity or £15 for a month. In return, you get an “unlimited” data connection with a “fair use” restriction of 500MB on the daily tariff, 1GB on the weekly and 2GB on the monthly.
It’s all a bit complicated and expensive, with the Tab itself costing £529 – much more than the current shopping-around-price that can be had elsewhere. So you’re basically buying a data-only SIM card and an expensive Tab. Can’t see this deal redefining any retail parameters.


INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
