T-Mobile says it’s adding a cheaper data plan with a limit on monthly traffic, much the way AT&T and Verizon Wireless have done.

T-Mobile USA  will  introduce the new plan before the end of the year. It will cost $10 per month with a two-year contract or $15 without one. It will provide 200 megabytes of data use per month.

The U.S. unit of Germany’s Deutsche Telekom AG is keeping its existing unlimited data plan, which costs $20 or $30 depending on the voice plan to which it’s added.

AT&T eliminated its unlimited data plans for new customers this summer. One of the new options is $15 per month for 200 megabytes. Verizon Wireless is trying a similar plan this holiday season.
