T-Mobile's free 200MB/month for tablets is great, especially for text and email on the go.

Side note: nytimes's website on mobile is totally annoying. No pinchzoom and double tap mucks with the font size. Just as we had Flash blockers back in the day, I look forward JavaScript blockers.




The no-zooming thing is probably implemented with non-javascript parts of html/css3.

Yes, the whole web sucks now. What you need is a user-agent that chooses to carefully not implement some of its stupidity.


I had completely missed the fact that you can get a free 200MB/mo, all you have to do is pay $10 for the SIM. Thanks for the heads up!


just so you cant zoom in the text and not view the ads. IAB pricing model is going over (the technically fallible and worthless) viewable ad instead of ad impression.

just another way third parties found to take the advertiser money and not pass it down to the publishers.
