all that hype for a 200USD iphone is ridiculous. its saying, pay $200 to add in a 3G and a different back plate. thats without having that insane apple iphone plan that goes with AT&T.
Ok one thing you folks need to realize is that the iphone uses alot of data like e-mail, itunes store, and now the app store. One thing you also need to realize is that the "Visual Voice mail" Goes through the data connections so the end user is not waisting minutes checking voice mail.
if you want to gripe about having to take the data potion and only want a phone then I would suggest that you get a cheap Nokia and a ipod touch and quit complaining about the data cost.
I, for one, am rejoicing that the price came down and only have to pay 15 more a month for internet that actually works on a phone rather then the cripple internet that I get on my Samsung A-737 that I currently pay $15 for. And the "Family unlimited" messaging that I am paying for will work for the phone. So my cost is only going up $15 for full usage!

NA-NE-NA-NE-POO-POO!
Yea.OK. You are a fool. The reason that I to not need a data plan is the fact that I DO NOT NEED email, music store, or any of the other features that are available on this device. All I need is a MP3 player, phone service, and wi-fi connectivity. Has ATT ever considered that some of us have ready access to wi-fi were we live or work. Its tools like you that keep companies like wal-mart and ATT in business because you are willing to put up with their crap. As for me I will NEVER buy this device as long as it has these strings attached. Damn blind consumerism.
