I have been using my N900 with t-mobile and i do not have any internet-data plan at this moment but for some reason i can access the internet using t-mobile internet. it kicks me out after like 5 minutes but i can use it again after a short while.

I did call t-mobile customer service and told them that i was accessing the internet without wifi and i was concern about getting charge for data download. They told me that i did not have any charges at all. He also mention that they dont charge for the volume of data that you download like other company's like Verizon, is either i have data plan or not.

is anybody else getting online without wifi using t-mobile internet plan and not getting charge for?

their unlimited data plan is really unlimited compared to the big 3 that caps you to 5gb and still insist theirs is unlimited to use.

if you become a data hog, they'll just demote your speed till your next bill but not charge you more. just don't abuse it or they'll have the right to terminate your service...

I can't get online without a data plan. Are you sure you did not access the web via Wifi?

What are your t-mobile data settings?

i have t-mobile and love it, i switched to them just for the N900 since i had AT&T. I use it for the phone, as well as an internet modem for my laptop while out.

Interesting, I thought they still had an artifical cap (like around 10 GBs).

they do have the 5 or 10gb cap but they won't charge you more. only make your speed slower. this only applies on phones regardless if you use it as a modem for you pc / laptop.

i don't know if this is the same as the data stick policy but i think they're on the same field as the big 3 when it comes on data plan on usb modems w/c charge you more after the cap.
