T-Mobile sent notices to the media on Wednesday letting us know that a big announcement was coming on Thursday morning, and the buildup continued all day as T-Mobile executives teased a "big secret" that would be "huge." T-Mobile and its outspoken CEO John Legere have a tendency to make every upcoming announcement sound as though it's going to be a game-changer, though to the company's credit, several of its past "Un-carrier" initiatives have indeed been game-changers. Thursday's news comes just one day after AT&T announced a shakeup that would see it do away with service overages on its new plans. Not having to worry about overages will be a weight off of many people's chests, though there is a downside: Instead of being changed for excess data, AT&T will now throttle subscribers to 2G speeds when they've hit their data limit in a billing period. Can T-Mobile top AT&T's big news from Wednesday? It's time to find out.
