Yeah, but even though they have these packages that include voice and data, could one not pay the $100 DECF and just opt for a voice plan and use wifi? I'm sure at first when you purchase and activate the iPhone you will have to choose one of those plans ... but what's to stop anyone from calling up afterwards and saying 'I want a voice only plan, and I will pay the $100 DECF?'

iPhones will probably only be sold with a 3 year contract, remember this also doesn't elude to how much they're charging you for the phone as well. Get ready to bend over.

I will just be paying the extra for the phone with no contract. Any idea for how much the prices are going to be. This is ridiculous, we are still second class citizens.
