Still really attached to that landline phone? Seriously? That’s cool, we still love you, and T-Mobile still wants your business. Following a few months of trials, the T-Mobile HotSpot @Home Talk Forever service has mercifully morphed into the simpler “T-Mobile @Home,” featuring a Linksys-sourced router that plugs into a broadband connection and allows any plain ol’ telephone — you know, the plug-in kind — to take advantage of unlimited nationwide calling for $10 a month on top of your regular T-Mobile bill. The so-called “HiPort” router runs $49.99 on a two-year contract, and if you’re in the market for a fancy new cordless, they’ll sell you a two-handset VTech DECT system for $59.99. No worries when you’re ready to hop back into the 21st century, either; the system will happily work with T-Mobile’s HotSpot @Home WiFi cellphones, too. Look for the whole shebang to go on sale July 2.
