T-Mobile Using Qik To Compete With Facetime

T-Mobile is running a full-court press on the mobile provider market this Christmas shopping season, with a flurry of announcements of new phones and services. Within the last couple of weeks they have announced four low-priced (with rebate) smartphones, an affordable tethering plan, and the high end myTouch 4G that runs Android. T-Mobile is starting to advertise their upgraded data network as being 4G and has launched an ad that directly calls out AT&T’s network as being a weight around the iPhone’s neck.
