Like clockwork, this time every year Apple announces a new generation of iPhones.

Unreal Mobile, a new Sprint-based MVNO, launched today with a line of inexpensive, low-data smartphone plans. Unreal Mobile was created by, and is a subsidiary of, Freedom Pop.

Sprint, perhaps anticipating its potential union to T-Mobile, is jumping on the 55+ unlimited cellular plan bandwagon.

Sprint is teaming up with Hulu to offer a free subscription to the video streaming service. Surprise? I would venture towards “no”.
