Good deal: $20 a month for a tablet and 2GB of data on Optus

After a 4G-enabled tablet and a bit of data on the cheap? Optus' has got a new $20 "Entertainment Plan" that could just fit the bill. 

The bundle includes a 8-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0, 2GB of data per month, and data-free streaming through Google Play Music, Pandora, Spotify, Netflix, Stan, and iView. The only major streaming services in Australia you'll need to use your hard-earned data for are Apple Play and Foxtel Play. 

So what's the catch? You need to sign a 24-month contract, which works out to be $480 over two years.

Key specifications for the Tab A 8.0 include an 8-inch display, a 1.2GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of expandable storage, and a 4,200mAh battery. It runs Android Lollipop.
