Iphone plan breakdown please...

Ok I will be jumping ship to come over to ATT with the release of the new iphone and I was wondering what the basic costs of plan/package will run me.

I currently have the Sprint SERO plan of 1250 mins, N&W free and start @ 7PM, unlimited data-internet-text. All of this for about $80 a month after taxes. Now to come close to this plan for ATT I think I will need the 900min plan but after that I am a little hazy on the data-TM thing. Is there an option for unlimited TM's and what does that run? Basically what will my bill be for a good bank of minutes unlimited TM and internet.

Thanks for any help offered.

Regards,
ds

The plans haven't been announced yet but

900 minutes $59.99
data $30
SMS unlimited $20

$110

I think these are the expected prices. This could all change.

btw, with the current iPhone plans MMS/Video messaging is blocked even if you put your sim in a capable phone. This may change but I doubt it.

So I am going to guess that the lady I talked to yesterday at the store did not know what she was talking about?
Here is exactally what she told me because I wrote it down.

Unlimited Voice = $99
iPhone Data plan with unlimited texting = $30

Total $129 + tax

Honestly, she prob doesn't know.

Unlimited voice is $99.
3g iPhone data is reported to be $30
Unlimited SMS is currently $20

It would be great if the data plan did include unlimited SMS but I doubt that it will.

I questioned her about it, she said the iphone data plan includes unlimited text messages for $30, but I thought the same thing, I thought it was an additional $20 for unlimited text messages.

And the plot thickens!!

Now there is an interesting bit to chew on... Maybe even enough to divert attention from what it will cost to buy a 2 year contract phone at a no contract price point :P

regardless, its going to be expensive. but if unlimited mins, data, and text is what you want, who care about the cost? Do what makes you happy bud
