T-Mobile will give you a free tablet if you purchase a monthly data plan with a 1GB of data or more

T-Mobile is celebrating Valentine's Day by giving you a "Sweet Tablet Offer." Starting this Thursday (February 12th) through next Monday (February 16th), sign up for a postpaid data plan with 1GB or more of data each month, and the carrier will sell you a free Alcatel OneTouch Pop 7 for $0 down and $0 each month for 24 months. The deal is structured like this because it allows T-Mobile to charge you full price for the slate if you leave the carrier before 2 years expires. You need to be well-qualified, and you are responsible for the sales tax on the tablet.

The Alcatel OneTouch Pop 7 features a 7-inch screen with resolution of 1024 x 600. A dual-core 1.3GHz MediaTek MT-8312 CPU is onboard with the Mali-400 GPU handling graphics. 1GB of RAM is inside along with a puny 2.4GB of storage space available to the user. In the likely event more memory is needed, a 32GB capacity microSD slot is available. A 2MP camera graces the back of the slate and a .3MP snapper can be found on the front of the tablet. The included 3240mAh battery keeps the lights on, and Android 4.2 is pre-installed.

You can pay as low as $20 monthly for a T-Mobile data plan offering 1GB of data, or as high as $70 each month for 11GB of data. And don't forget, T-Mobile gives away 200MB of free data each month to its tablet-bearing customers.
