My biggest complaint with tmo was their lack of international calling once I drive north into Canada or hop the Atlantic. Now, at least they offer inexpensive calling and texting in Canada, and I'm looking forward to testing the service on our next Canada trip this summer. Coverage isn't as thorough as the majors, but everything else about tmo is good: easy policy about bringing your own device, tethering, promoting Nexus, responsive customer service (in my experience, and top rated by Consumer Reports, year after year). I'm intrigued by the lifetime data tablet offer; sounds too good to be true. Amazon revoked their lifetime data for Kindle, so I'm wondering whether tmo can be relied upon for an entire lifetime. The CNET article mentions the idea of buying out customers of competitors. Now that's disruptive. It's a bit ironic that people are loathe to pay $200 to break a contract, yet spend $2 a day, 250 days a year, for coffee. Anyway, brilliant idea because they'll make back the buyout costs over time, and there are more than a few customers who'd love to stick it to ATT and Verizon.
