Sprint ZTE Peel Rumored To Be Hitting Sprint On November 14

For those of you cleaving to your iPod Touches and looking for a device other than the Apple Peel 520 to satisfy your mobile phone needs, it seems like another option might be available soon. The Sprint ZTE Peel is basically a Mi-Fi (mobile WiFi) router built into an iPod Touch case. Sadly, there is no phone functionality, but you will be able to use any app you would like to for calling. There are rumors that the Sprint ZTE Peel will be available on a contract free 1 GB data plan for $29.99 a month, and the ZTE Peel itself is rumored to cost $80. The Sprint ZTE Peel doesn't seem to differ in any way from other mobile WiFi solutions, so you might as well get yourself a MiFi device from another carrier, put it in your pocket, and connect your iPod Touch to it, instead of having to attach a hefty case to the back of your iPod Touch. Another alternative that you might consider is the Apple Peel 520, which actually adds phone and SMS functionality to your iPod Touch, although it does not support data. Overall, the Sprint ZTE Peel doesn't seem like that good of a device when you look at the amount of small MiFi devices available at low prices. If, for some reason, you do want the Sprint ZTE Peel, it is rumored to be launching on November 14th for $80.
