T-Mobile USA Begins Taking iPhone 5 Pre-Orders

MacRumors:

The 32 GB and 64 GB models carry the same monthly payment amounts, but require larger down payments of $199.99 and $299.99 respectively.

Under T-Mobile’s “Uncarrier” plans, single line service plans will require no contract, and will begin at $50 per month for unlimited talk, text, and data. However, data will be slowed to 2G speeds once the customer reaches 500MB for the month.

For a $60 monthly charge, a customer can get 2.5GB of high-speed data, and for $70, can get unlimited high-speed access.

Now, let’s see how long it will take for the first “industry analyst” to forecast doom-and-gloom for Apple if the T-Mobile pre-sales don’t immediately sell out…
