T-Mobile rolls out new tiered data pricing, offers tethering

Putting the rumors to rest, T-Mobile USA will offer a tiered data pricing structure this holiday season as well as a tethering option for smartphone customers.

The carrier is offering, for a limited time, a 200 MB data plan in addition to its existing $30 plan for unlimited data. The 200 MB plan will cost $10 per month with a two-year contract or $15 per month without a contract. T-Mobile will keep its $30 plan for unlimited data. A T-Mobile spokeswoman said that the $10 plan is promotional and that the $15 plan will still be available once the $10 plan is no longer available.

Verizon Wireless last week launched a promotional data plan offering 150 MB of data for $15 per month, in addition to its existing $30 per month for unlimited data offering.

Additionally, T-Mobile is launching a tethering option for smartphone customers. Customers must buy the $30 data plan and a $15 per month add-on to turn their smartphone into a wireless modem.
