You think that is bad, did you see how much the price is for "Enterprise" users (aka anyone who wants Exchange email)? $45 a month!
Got a tip for us?

So it is $15 or $10 more per month?

No it isn't.
Sprint's is signifigantly cheaper, IMHO.
$39.99 450 mins on AT&T Plan
$30.00 Unlimited Web
That's $69, and without ANY SMS/Text. Add $5 for a measly 200 msgs. Or $20 for unlimited. That's $89 on AT&T compared to $69 on Sprint.

What do you mean? He said Sprint & Verizon's were on par with AT&T's pricing. I said no it isnt and showed how sprint is $20 cheaper for the same thing.

Yeah, and if you want an AT&T 3G iPhone plan similar to the $69 and $79 Sprint and Verizon plans Bosox3 mentioned it will cost you $89. $10 or $20 difference per month adds up over a 24 month period.

Better than that- Tmobile Sidekick plan
1,000 minutes $39.99
Sidekick unlimited push email, unlimited texts, unlimited internet-$20
That's $59.99 a month for unlimited data.
I was all set to move to an iphone- even for an extra $49 a month- but now it's just too much.
Sidekick is just hard to beat.

Anyone with Sprint and not getting the SERO rate needs to get on it ASAP. $30 for 500 minutes, unlimited m2m, unlimited n&w @ 7pm, unlimited text/MMS, unlimited data. It's the best deal around, and it's open to anyone if they just go and get ANY Sprint employee email address (swing by a Sprint and get a business card or just use Google).
People can bitch all they want about Sprint, I know it's the cool thing to do online at the moment, but I've been a Sprint customer for two years and have had great service, both customer and technical. I was an ATT wireless user for a year and it was absolutely awful. The CS agents were idiots, the service sucked, the price sucked, it was just plain terrible. Same goes for their landline and long distance service.
For the record, a chunk of that money goes to RIM for the push email and other services. It'd be sort of like having Mobile Me built into the price of your iPhone. Anyways, you need to switch your Sprint plan to one of the new "everything" plans. You can get 450 minutes, unlimited text/m2m/n&w @ 6, data, and BB service for about $70, which sounds like it's less than you are paying now and you'll get texts.
I dont believe he is saying that the actual cost of Sprints plan is lower than $69. He is just saying that $10-$20 a month is not "on par". and a $20 difference is significantly cheaper.
Yes, got it. Misunderstanding on my part there. I guess it comes down to choice. I would pay the 20 more with the use of my iPhone.
