***T-mobile Discontinuing "Family Time 1000" Plan after 2/14/07!***
I saw this mentioned in a couple of different places, but looks like T-mobile is discontinuing the following promo plans AFTER 2/14/07:

Family Time 1000 = 1000 Anytime Minutes + M2M (NO N&W) = $49.99 (for 2 lines)

If you want it, GET IT WHILE YOU STILL CAN!

Well, it was always a "promo" plan, and wasn't meant to stay "permanently". It was brought back last year as a "back-to-school" promo, but was extended (probably due to popularity). Hopefully they will replace it with something else soon, but IMO I think their next promo plan will probably be an individual plan (in my observation, they tend to alternate between family promos and individual promos).

This isn't the first time they had it up, is it? I thought they had it, got rid of it, and got it back a few months later. Maybe I am mistaken. Maybe they are clearing the way for something else?

That is correct. This is the 2nd time they had this particular promo (although I'm not sure why they took it down, only to put it back up a short while later). I'm hoping they're clearing the way for something else... these promos is what makes T-mo GREAT IMO (you really don't see the other carriers running seasonal plan promos... and SERO doesn't count since that's not seasonal :p ).

T-Mobile USA tweaks business calling plans, drops 1,000-minute family option :: RCR Wireless News

It looks they put in a 1000 min Business plan, and pumped up the price of the 1500 min plan.

Very true, but you would need a tax id and a business that will pass the credit check. Not that its truly difficult to meet those two requirements but its necessary.
