But wait, there's more: T-Mobile lets you buy with four easy payments

With its new Equipment Installment Plan, T-Mobile has started offering both current and new customers the opportunity to spread their phone and accessory purchases over not two, not three, but four monthly payments -- interest-free, no less. Think of it as a little piece of Vince Offer, Billy Mays, and Ron Popeil inside each and every device T-Mobile sells, except with less absorbency or ability to mince onion into a fine pulp -- and it doesn't matter how much G1 you apply to your torn pants, everyone's still going to see your skivvies.

If there's ever a Team Fortress 2 live action movie, I want this guy cast as the Scout.

That G1-ShamWow picture made my afternoon. LOL x4!

[carcomptoy Posted Feb 2nd 2009 2:36PM]

How exactly do you take advantage of this? I was just on the website, and there was no such option...

[CeluGeek Posted Feb 2nd 2009 2:38PM]

@carcomptoy: You need to ask for it when upgrading on the phone or in-store. I don't know if it is available when you upgrade from within your online account on MyT-Mobile, but going through the website without logging onto your account does not provide this option at all.

Google better hire Vince to sell their G1, I don't know anyone who has one, kind like Zune............LOL.........Shamwow probably makes more money than G1.

stop by NYC. filling the palms and pockets of plenty here.

First, this has been quietly available for several months now... (a friend of mine did this back in December) second, this isn't available through T-Mobile.com orders (new activations OR upgrades) you have to either call in to customer care or go to a store. And in some states that require a physical signature you have to go into a store because you can't physically sign over the phone.... but don't blame T-Mobile for that... blame your state :-)

@ Ken. Check this out and tell me how Shamwow makes more money than G1.

I actually wish VZW would do this. Pretty neat idea.


LOL@Vince. "You're gonna spend $20 a month of paper towels anyways.." uhh no dude I'm not, and never have. I don't know who goes through $20 of paper towels a month.

[jacksplat Posted Feb 2nd 2009 5:20PM]

Chad's younger brother, Vince, was never to able to live up to the standards set by his older brother. That is, until he came across an ad on the back of a matchbook promising to make you "A TV Star" overnight.

"but call now, 'cause you know we can't do this all day" ....

[iqbalj Posted Feb 2nd 2009 6:28PM]

Where fo you get the photos for this site??? THey're crazy... in a good way.

[(Unverified) Posted Feb 3rd 2009 12:30AM]

..........don't know about NYC, but come to LA, I have not seen one person using G1, once I was in Walmart, saw some kids playing with it like a remote, that's about it. G1 sucks!!! Google can get away with the utilitarian look for their website, they better think twice when it comes to consumer electronics.

[(Unverified) Posted Feb 3rd 2009 3:52AM]

you'll be sayin wow every time.

[(Unverified) Posted Feb 3rd 2009 2:40PM]
