raydenl: the sweet spot is 1GB for around $80 p/month. if someone offers a plan like that, i'll buy an iphone straight away, as soon as i ask my gf's permission :)
sethw:
no dropped calls
GDBDB: Paul
You say that when the 3 month offer expires, you will offer "something else". How do I know that "something else" will suit me. Maybe you will offer extra calls or text messages which I don't need. There are no guarantees.

I am moved to write because of GDBDB's post. He is totally right. It's the best post I've read in a long time. I was highly insulted by Paul's comment that in three months there will be "something else". As a customer handing over a lot of money to a company I expect certainty and respect - not carrots being dangled in front of me. Why not tell us now what that "something else" is now. And if you don't know, then make a decision about it and tell us. We are sick of being ripped off by two large telecommunications companies that to our face pretend as if they are doing us favours with great deals. So either stop ripping us off, or be honest about how average your prices and plans are.
Tohe: A $600 account credit is nothing to be sneezed at. Thats 7.5 months of free service!
You get an hour extra to chat per month
240MB Data
Better coverage
Ok so you have to pay for txt/pxt... whoopee chook!
~7.5 months of free service vs 3 months of 3GB downloads?
I don't think I could download that much on an iPhone if I tried!
Internet is my backyard...

PaulBrislen: Hello the Mantis: to answer your questions:
1) XT does have a 3GB plan if you want it - only an idiot would consider using a 240MB plan for 3GB of data and paying the overage charges..
Yes, but that's not what Telecom is offering. Instead you're on the 180 plan which includes 240MB of data. The 180 plan then goes to an overuse rate of 50c/MB. Ouch.
chiefie: You shouldn't be using that much data on a mobile device. I'd much rather be burning my bandwidth on real broadband and not on mobile. 250MB-500MB is pretty good for moderate mobile data.
