The Berlin 29 Euro Monthly Ticket?

 Due to the hype of the June, July, and August national 9-Euro (per month) ticket....being able to use for any bus/rail service except ICE....Berlin (the city) has found the resources to offer up a 29-Euro a month ticket.

Catch?  Well....you sign a contract for a 1-year period.  It's also a boundary situation.....the state or city of Berlin itself.

Other states likely to go this way?  Very limited possibility.

Due to the massive numbers of people in Berlin who use public transportation....there's only three states in this category who might be able to make this ticket work (Bremen and Hamburg are the remaining two).

Is it a good deal?  If you said this was a 29-Euro ticket that I could use across the nation.....anywhere?  Then yes.  In Berlin's case.....this is a ticket you use within the limits of Berlin itself.  So I won't suggest its a good deal, unless you were happy with just your local area/boundary.
