Now until May 24th, Wirefly and Verizon are offering a $40 bill credit to anyone who activates or upgrades a 4G LTE smartphone. Of course it requires a 2-year agreement, but hey, if you were planning on doing this anyways, you might as well save yourself $40.

T-Mobile has announced the availability of a certain tasty treat for HTC Amaze 4G owners. That’s right, Android 4.0 aka Ice Cream Sandwich, is now available for the HTC Amaze 4G. To check for the update, simply go to Menu > Settings > About Phone > HTC Software Updates > Check. Follow the instructions and you’ll be on your way to enjoying the latest and greatest version of Android.

The majority of you out there will probably want to go with the “Full Monty” plan, which includes unlimited texts, data, Tmo-to-Tmo calls and 2000 minutes for £36 per month. Users who sign up for the “Full Monty” will be able to score a Samsung Galaxy S III for the low price of £49.99.
