I pay $90 per month for 2 phones on an unlimited plan. Add the unlimited the $25 data plan and another $5 for 400 (all of which is currently on my plan) and the iPhone- unlocked naturally- works for me. I want the apps, sure we have the G1, but I think it's a joke in comparison to the Phone, as it is kinda lacking.

It’s not the price of the phone keeping me from buying it; it is the cost of the data plan. Exactly.

MY iPhone saves me $20 a month with its web —YMMV. iPhone WAS the first usable handheld web device. I paid $2500 for the POS GPS in my wife's Jag and $2500 for one in my Honda. Recently my Honda drew a blank... but iPhone guided me with it's street map function! I can't wait until turn by turn moving map comes out in iPhone 3.0. I can afford the data plan as my next two cars will NOT NEED GPS. Once you get handheld internet you can’t let go.

If I need to use the internet I can go use free wifi somewhere. I want it for all the apps. Mainly, wikipedia on my phone, financial programs to track my spending and health programs to track what I eat. I Would buy it, unlock it and use it on T-mobile for $50 a month.

I must be paying a ton, right? I'm paying $34.99 a month, actually. The catch is that my voice per minute rate is $0.40 - not that I ever use it, so meh. All on the best network out there with the most bars anywhere you go. I'm quite happy. ^_^ They should really do that for the iPhone though. I would snatch one up IN A HEARTBEAT.
