It can maybe save you some money, but the iPhone still comes with a hefty price-tag: a multi-year contract.

Sure, it’s sleak, high-tech and enabling but over 3 years, a customer will drain nearly 2800$

Is google-map on the go or Cars on a few inch screen worth 2800$ ?

Thanks for the link. Here’s another reason to buy an iPhone:

I’m saving $30 a month compared to what I was paying previously for my 8525 and 3G data plan. I was paying $50 for unlimited data and 1000 text messages, and now I pay $20 for unl data and 200 text messages (plenty for me).

See? Buying an iPhone will SAVE you money!
