There's still a need for a phone that supports GSM 850 with this product too. Otherwise you are quite right that it is a good choice.

The advantage of T-Mobile is that $100 in it lets you keep it going for $10 a year. Therefore, for very low-minute users it is the most cost-effective solution at the expense of some coverage. (For example, AT&T has a much better network in New York City than T-Mobile does, although T-Mobile is alright.)
