It looks as if Nokia is T-mobile’s new Samsung. For those that don’t follow T-mobile quite as closely as we do, this just means that it looks like T-mobile has pushed their Samsung phones as much as they could, and then some, and now it is time to move on to Nokias. It seems that T-mobile is trying to clear out some lower end Nokia phones before the 5310, 5610, and 6301 all drop the third week of may. But hey, if you live in New York, LA, or Miami, you might want to grab a 3G-enabled 3555. Like it says, these prices should be available at about 12:00 PM tomorrow, April 23rd, and will be discontinued on May 13th.

Like we said in a previously written article, it is about to rain Nokias, and Ladies and gentleman here comes the rain! The Nokia 5610 and the 5310 will be out on May 21st. With a decent camera, MicroSD slot, style, and voice dialing, the 5610 is shaping up to be one of T-mobile higher-end phones. If your looking to save a little money but still keep it stylish, pick the up the 5310. Keep an eye open for documentation on the rest of T-mobile’s upcoming lineup!

As it turns out, T-mobile doesn’t monitor the origination of the I.P. address for their Wifi Hotspot@Home calls. Translation: If you make a call using T-mobile’s Hotspot@Home, they don’t care where it is from. We’re not talking calls from places like California, Texas, and New York. We’re talking Argentina, China, London, Israel, and South Africa…Anywhere that has open Wifi, you can make a UMA call to the US for no international roaming charge. Now, if you don’t have unlimited Hotspot@Home minutes they will be deducted out of your anytime minutes bucket (unless it is Nights, Weekends, or M2M) But if you want to talk as long as you want snatch up T-mobile’s $9.99 Unlimited Hotspot@Home add-on. We know this is starting to sound like an advertisement for T-mobile; we’re just excited that we can travel around the world, and still make free calls to the US wherever we find open Wifi! We have read reports of inferior call quality while making these international Wifi calls, but really, is that unexpected? Still a great deal

T-mobile, why are you not advertising this?!
