I send around ~2,500 SMS a month, at $0.15/sms that's $375 a month in overages on text messages alone! Right now with Fido they have 300 anytime minutes, call display call waiting voice mail, 2500 sms, 2500 im, unlimited internet for $60/mo, beat that. What ridiculous pricing. Also fido has new data plans: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Flat rates 30$ for 300MB, 60$ for 1GB, 80$ for 3 GB, and 100$ for 6GB All have unlimited emailing from a Fido WM phone (only otherwise no emailing) and all plans are eligible for all Phones Fido or not, using any browser and for tethering. Also, any MB over up to 60 MB is only 0.50$/MB and over 60MB is 0.03$/MB. Flex rates $50 - up to 500MB $65 - up to 1GB $75 - up to 2GB $85 - up to 3GB $100 - up to 5GB ------------------------------------------------------------------- I read your post on your blog, if you can afford a iPhone, good for you. Some people are just Apple fan boys and want to own something Apple created. If you want to go on and piss off people with your blog, don't leave a comment here and let me see it. 150 minutes is nothing, also with 75 SMS included with the plan you are unable to add anymore.

And if you don't need at least 400mb of data use per month (Internet), then the iPhone is not for you. The whole point of the iPhone is to surf the web on the go.
