Something that's always bothered me is that AT&T offers an employee discount where I work on voice and data plans on every phone they offer. Except the iPhone, of course. For Blackberry's, AT&T offers the exact same price points for voice and data as the 3G iPhone ($39.99 for the base voice plan and $30 for unlimited data). However, with my employee discount, I could get the voice plan for $31 and the unlimited data for $20. If I got a Blackberry, I could save $20/month over the 2-year contract (Almost $500) and I would still be able to use unlimited data (Slingbox over 3G, anyone?)
In many ways, the iPhone is years ahead of the competition. In other ways, it's years behind.
