Why on earth I would want to spend that much money when I already got a good cell plane…got a good cell phone….and got an ipod. 2000 dollars to go online on that tiny screen? Or to look at pictures on it? Besides this pricey crap will be free after mail in rebate in about 2 years with an extended cell phone plan….if not, you wont see me drop a tear over it.</p> hell no….you forgot to add in your article that most people have a cell phone plan….with me for example…i got t-mobile….to cancel that and add an iphone monthly is another 200 dollars. plus i wont be using my razr which cost me another 200 dollars. plus i wont use my ipod which cost me another 200+ dollars. so you add all this to your calculated price is roughly 2,000 dollars. just ridiculous.

Also, I don't need a phone to do what I can do on my computer anyway... I agree with the Apple ad-hating, too. No.

If their plans had about 200 more minutes, the pricing would be OK. Still, there's NO WAY I'm forking out $499 for a phone. When they can get it down to $199, either with or without some type of rebate or credit arrangement, then maybe I'll bite. Still, forking out $720/year for service is a harsh reality. My own limit is closer to $500. Considering they seem to be pricing the data portion of the plan at about $20, I think they are pricing the voice portion about $10 too high, for the plan minutes.

Contractual obligations 2. Associated with AT & T. 3. Ridiculous price of the iPhone. 4. Ridiculous price of the phone package. 5. Apple 1st and even 2nd get items ALWAYS have problems. 6. I hate those fucking Apple ads especially that Mac vs Pc ad so much now that I'm not gonna get any apple product EVER again....just because! :-) Things that turned me off:
