Interest in the iPhone 4 remains high, despite reports of some people experiencing reception issues, and all of the networks have released pricing information, including now T-Mobile. As well as the iPhone 4, T-Mobile will also be providing the iPhone 3G S, the 8GB version as all the networks will be offering. There's nothing outstanding in the T-Mobile offering, with a maximum of 500 inclusive SMS bundled with the tariffs, and 1 GB of data allowance available only on the highest package, most tariffs are offering an inclusive allowance of just 500 MB.
