I did a very simple calculation by comparing rate plans between a normal phone with email capabilites and iPhone both on AT&T. The cost you would pay on an iphone for 900 mins of talktime, unlimited data and messaging is $50 higher than the same for any other phone. Which means that over a 2 year contract you would pay an extra $1200 for the iPhone.
Even if you discard the difference for data as the iPhone is on the 3G network, the difference in voice itself is $30 per month. Which translates to an extra $720 over the two years.
In essence you are buying an iPhone with a down payment of $199 and then are on a payment plan of $50 (or $30) per month for two years. Is it still worth it? I sure do think so.
