Following in the footsteps of Verizon, AT&T is just a month away from implementing Shared Data/Mobile plans. Unveiled by AT&T today, the new Mobile Share Plans are extremely similar to Verizon’s, with a few notable differences.

The device that coined the term “phablet” is officially on its way to T-Mobile. The 5+” Samsung Galaxy Note will be available from T-Mobile in “coming weeks” and will launch with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and Samsung’s Premium Suite. The Galaxy Note has risen above ridicule to become a top selling Samsung device that will soon have T-Mobile customers clamoring for a stylus.

Now here’s something to get excited about. A landing page has gone up for the Verizon Galaxy S III “Developer Edition.” It’s a 32GB, Pebble Blue Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III that comes with a special treat: an unlockable bootloader! At this point in the game, an unlocked Samsung Galaxy S III is as sweet as it gets.

For a monthly fee of $5.99, Verizon customers will have unlimited access to more than 100 Android smartphone games and more than 50 tablet games, including hits like Doodle God, Fruit Ninja and World of Goo. While I’m not a fan of subscription services, if GameTanium stays up-to-date with the latest hit Android games, it could save users the hassle of trying to figure out what games to buy, as well as save them a bit of money.
