I am looking into switching to an iphone soon and I am thinking it might be cheaper for me in the long run. Right now I would just get the 450 minute plan. After taxes and all the little add ons phone companies throw at you what does an average bill come to? Thanks in advance.
Got a tip for us?

I have the minimum plan ($59), and after state, local, federal taxes it is about $69-$73 (I'm waiting for a suscription service I had to expire).

I have the minimum plan of 450 anytime minutes, 5000 nights and weekend minutes and I pay $10 extra for 1,500 text messages a month. My bill comes out to between $78 - $84 bucks a month.
Hope that helps.

450 minute plan gets me this...
This was my first regular monthly bill after that ghastly first bill, which was $156.02.
So, i'm assuming my monthly bill will be around $71.

I'm on the 450min plan and pay around $66 after taxes.
I have around 1200 rollover minutes to use when I go over ... so helpful
Most of my minutes are night/weekend or mobile to mobile ....

Thats pretty good... T Mobile is the only major cell carrier I haven't tried but AT&T is the one I've been most satisfied with. I think ~$65/mo for an iPhone is a great deal.
I think 42 is even better!
I much prefer AT&T because everything works on the iPhone. You can't use Visual Voicemail on a phone using T Mobile.
That's right, every month, worth every penny, in fact I have two active AT&T iPhones. Very happy. I'm not paying anymore than I was with Sprint using a Treo 650.
I am on a family plan-- 4 phones (1 iPhone)-- pay about $115 a month (I have the least expensive text plan as I do not text often)
I'm looking to get myself an iPhone once the second generation one comes out (whenever that may be), and I was curious if it's easy to start with the basic plan and upgrade your number of text messages later? I don't do that much texting now since it is cumbersome on a normal phone without a keyboard, but with the iPhone I could see myself sending more.
Also, does anyone know if there is a coverage map anywhere for AT&T? I use Sprint currently and don't know how well-covered my area is for AT&T.

We pay $85 or somewhere around there depending on how much my wife texts. At times, it's about $88, but it's never gone higher.
We have the 550 mins anytime w/ Rollover (2800 mins)
The iPhone bolt on is $20, and I switched my line to the secondary line because of our employer discount. I believe it's 15% on service, but it helps!
