Can someone confirm that the above statement is correct, that you can't get online through WiFi if you don't have an internet plan? That's ridiculous and not at all what I would expect from T-Mobile.
I don't believe this is true. I have the 8320 and I have the $19.99 data plan and voice. As a test I just turned off the radio connection which supplies EDGE and GSM, and only left on my Wi-Fi connection. I was able to browse the web and make a phone call completely over Wi-Fi. Now maybe the device I can still tell I have the proper data and voiceplans, but since the actual radio was off I don't think it could.
“While it's not exactly punching it out with the heavyweights in multi-room audio, the Mint Studio does certainly hold its own with many similarly-priced iPod docks out there.”
