Today’s press-event for T-Mobile didn’t disappoint, a few gadgets and a new iPhone 5 agreement has been announced allowing T-Mobile customers to pick up the iPhone 5 without a contract.
T-Mobile has become the first major wireless company to eliminate service contracts; while also bringing 4G LTE network to seven major areas.

The news came via the T-Mobile press-event which stated, “qualifying customers can get an iPhone 5 for $99.99 down, plus monthly payments”. This would make T-Mobile the only major U.S. wireless company to offer iPhone 5 “with no annual service contract plus unlimited talk, text and Web on a screaming-fast nationwide 4G network” according to T-Mobile.
“This is an important day for people who love their iPhone but can’t stand the pain other carriers put them through to own one,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile USA. “We feel their pain. I’ve felt the pain. So we’re rewriting the rules of wireless to provide a radically simple, affordable iPhone 5 experience – on an extremely powerful network.”
