The data plan is not debatable at all, lol. The iPhone data was $20 for unlimited data with 200 text messages. At the time that was released I was paying $25 for data on Sprint and another $10 for text messaging.
And this was before Verizon purchased Alltel, by the way, so Verizon did not have the biggest data network back then. They were just barely starting to roll out EVDO.
