The carrier's new service lets you select five people to always call for free. Plus, Cingular brings podcasts to handsets and a religious mobile app comes to Alltel.
T-Mobile launches myFaves
Recently T-Mobile has given itself a makeover. The carrier ditched spokesperson Catherine Zeta Jones and its slogan "Get more." Now T-Mobile launches a new service that helps you and your loved ones "Stick together," (the company's concise new slogan) with its new myFaves plans. The service, which operates much like Alltel's "My Circle," allows you to choose five phone numbers (even from other carriers and landlines) that you can call as much as you want without losing minutes. The service also works with family plans by letting everyone in the plan pick their own list of five faves. However, myFaves plans will cost you about $10 more a month versus T-Mobiles standard plans. (Source: T-Mobile)
