T-Mobile to unveil new data/messaging plans soon

New rumors have come to light of a few price changes for T-Mobile's data plans across the board. The new pricing apparently offers unlimited data and messaging for $34.99/month for all devices, including BlackBerries. The Android powered T-Mobile G1 already is available with a $35 unlimited data and messaging plan. The new unlimited plans will reportedly be soft-capped at 10GB of usage, after which speeds will be throttled back to 50kbps.

For "Phone First" devices and the T-Mobile Shadow there will be two bucket plans offered: 100MB data with unlimited messaging and 50MB data with 400 messages. The 100MB/unlimited messaging plan is expected to cost $19.99, while the 50MB/400 message plan is slated to come in at $9.99/month.

These new prices and packages are still unconfirmed, and are expected to be officially announced sometime in early November.
