CEO Confirms All iPads on T-Mobile Receive 200MB Free Data Each Month
T-Mobile CEO John Legere tweeted today to clarify his company's free 200MB monthly plans for iPads on its network. He reiterated that "everyone" gets 200MB of free data with no strings attached.
Earlier today, customers trying to buy iPads on T-Mobile were told they would have to pay a $10 monthly fee to access the "free" data, contradicting an offer from last week.

The $10 per mo./fee written about today is incorrect. We had an executional mistake that we will make right. - @JohnLegere
Yes. Everyone gets the 200MB of free data. No exceptions. No strings attached. - @JohnLegere
