Walmart will launch its own branded, post-paid wireless service, Walmart Family Mobile, later this month, the company announced.
The new service, which will use the T-Mobile wireless network,
will incorporate unlimited talk and text, with the first line of service costing $45 a month, and each additional line costing $25 per month. The company said the plan would save a family of three
approximately $1,200 a year, compared with other plans. Phones offered for the plan will include models from Samsung, Motorola and Nokia.
