What do you get for 22+ months of T-Mobile loyalty and a San Francisco address?  An invitation to the wireless company’s new $50/month Unlimited Voice plan.  This is a pretty good deal, considering I pay $40/month to AT&T Wireless for 450 minutes (and then get gouged for my iPhone data plan on top of that).

No word yet on when this awesomeness will roll out to the rest of the country.

Is Apple readying a video streaming service?

apple-logo11The folks over at Apple Insider are reporting that Apple could be putting the finishing touches on a video streaming service.  This service would likely debut with iTunes 8, the next installment of the company’s media player/organizer.

Why is this important?  For starters, it forces Amazon and Netflix to pay close attention.  Both companies offer streaming video to customers.  Apple’s entry into the market would certainly put a dent in the market shares of both.  It could also make the Apple TV, iPhone and iPod Touch much more useful.  None of the devices are particularly beefy on hard drive space – the ability to stream video could help alleviate some of the pain.

There’s no word yet on when this service might land or how content will be priced.
