Data Plans for 3G

[bls8195]

Does anyone know how much the new data plan is going to cost with the 3G phone? I called AT&T and they told me with 200 texted, it was 45.00 and with 1500 text it is $55 for the datas plans vs what I am paying now $20 and $30 as I have 2 iphones. thats crazy, thats a $25 per month increase for just 1 phone.

what you heard was correct

Damn thats pretty expensive, don't you guys think just for a data plan?

How does it work if you have the old price ie $20 for the data plan plus the 200 text, and I just upgrade my my iphone to the 3g iphone, would my plan change price wise at all? To me it shouldn't

It's a $30 data plan. $5 extra if you want 200 texts/month.

Voice plan rate + $30 data plan + $5-$20 texting = your approx. monthly bill

I believe the cheapest voice plan is $39.99 so that would come out to $69.99 with the data plan and extra for text messages. If you don't get a texting plan, texts are $.20 a pop.

I do I would like to keep what I currently have, data plus 200 text, I asked and I currently pay $20 per month for that, now I asked AT&T and they said the new price for that same thing is $45.00

Data plus 200 text msgs is $35, not $45.

Thats what people on here are saying but when I called AT&T they told me $45.00

Basically in a nutshell.. If you want a 3G phone what used to cost you $20 for data/txt will now cost you $35. If you don't want to pay the $15 difference for 3G speeds, GPS, bigger HD then I suggest you keep your v1 iPhone.

well I would still get the 8gb so I would not have a bigger hd, I guess, I will call them and ask again just to make sure.
