For 13 years I was a Sprint PCS customer with 3 accounts. This Summer, I dumped both of them and signed up with T-Mobile mostly because of Hot Spot@Home. I already had 3 mobile accounts so I was pre-qualified for HotSpot@Home for $9.95/month. My AT&T service without long distance was $21.95/month before taxes. Instant saving. When my contract with Sprint came to an end in August 2008, I asked what they would offer me to stay with Sprint. Answer: Nothing. Thus I moved to T-Mobile and my costs were immediately lower. The other great feature with HotSpot@Home relates to our BB 8320 Curves. When they are within range of the Hot Spot, the calls are made as VOIP thus saving money directly and saving battery power as well. We have two wireless V-Tech phones that work on the HotSpot. All in all, HotSpot@Home has proven to be a great deal. Did I mention that the LinkSys modem supplies WiFi for my laptops and it costs only $39.95? Thanks for reading.
