i would assume the average calling plan plus whatever internet service they tack on would be between 80-120 bucks, they might also tack something on since you didnt buy the phone from them........

i get reception everywhere i go..never any dropped calls. its 30 bucks a month for the data plan. i use everything all the time, maps, 3g network etc..but its only because im in my car at least an hour and 20 minutes a day, and have nothing to do in between my classes...if it wasnt so handy for my situation i would never have bought it.
ive had it for a year and a half and already its slowing down and im getting sick of it, however the ipod part of it, internet browsing, and service are great.

its really hard to explain..but u'd hit a button, and it would be a delayed response..sometimes ull wait longer than others. for instance if i wanted to go into sms, i would hit the key and it will show up 4-5 seconds later.
also i would restore it to the factory settings, and the apps wont work, so id restore it again and two weeks later the apps wont work again

I have a I-Touch right now. I like it, lot of times I wish I had the I phone when I cant find Wi-Fi. Soon as my GZOne dies (which doesn't look like anytime soon cause it is a awesome phone), I'll look into a I-phone or something comparable.

you might have a bad iPhone I've never had problems like this nor has my girl who has had one just as long as me she never upgraded to the 3gs so technicaly has had the 3g longer.

have you ever had one?
cause that is not true you get a text message saying the new upgrade is available to download and you connect the iPhone to itunes to upgrade that is the only way the new update can affect your phone unless you have it hacked..

I just upgraded to an iphone about a month ago.The only thing that turns me off other than the higher cost on my bill is the horrible battery life.I have to charge the damn thing every 1-2 days

turn off location services and wifi or just don't use them 24/7 and the battery will last almost double.
But if you use the internet,games,movies,and apps A LOT then the battery will only last a day or so depending on how much you use it.

I just got one as well, and I just switched from Verizon. For our intents and purposes, it is cheaper (family plan with rollover minutes and unlimited messaging). Also, verizon didn't get service at our house, and att gets a little. Service with verizon is far better, it isn't even a question. But my school paid for my iPhone and my friend spilled coffee on my blackberry so I had to buy a phone quick. Overall, I am happy with it. Texting sucks as I generally use my thumb. I have to disagree with my82roc though, I haven't been able to get over a day of battery out of the phone yet. It hasn't been a huge issue because I own about 5 ipod charges so I put one in my bag to charge in class, one in the car, one on my desk, etc...
