... that's the word about T-Mobile@Home but it's coming!

The Boy Genius Report got some juicy tips that the service will launch on June 27th. 

The TV spots might feature a bathrobe-clad man named Jimmy. Here's where it gets interesting. Apparently T-Mobile will be holding a contest, beginning in early July, in 11 major markets, giving away a free phone, router, and a full year of service to the first 100 customers in select stores. The markets and stores have not been revealed, but a free year of service is nothing to scoff at! We had the opportunity to beta test T-Mo's UMA service over a year ago. While there were certainly some kinks to be worked out of the system, the voice quality was good, and the GSM/WiFi hand-off was completely transparent. Anyone out there looking to buy in to T-Mobile's newest offering?

Oh, by the way, the first 100 people to show up at one of 11 select T-Mobile retail stores on the morning of the 3rd wearing a bath robe, will receive free T-Mobile@Home equipment and service for an entire year. Which 11 stores? Well head over to the The Boy Genius Report  to find out.
