Here there are only 2 mobile carriers - Etisalat and Du - both partially owned by the government here, so there is no real competition. What is nice is you just buy a SIM and away you go, so good thing the TP2 does GSM as well cause there are no subsidies on phones - and therefore no contracts (only for the iPhone but who wants that). My data cost alone is $39 and I just prepay for phone credits, but it really is cheap there - since I don't pay for incoming calls. I am looking at getting an HD2 to mess around with since that runs Android and WP7....

Head over to northern Europe, where xxxx minute plans are unheard of. "Why would somebody need 500 minutes on the mo-bile telephone every month??" is the question I've received from relatives. When I told them I use it a lot more than that because of the free nights, weekends, m2m, etc.. and pay $30, I was shunned and excommunicated for being a thief.
I LOL @ their cellphone plans
They LOL @ our heallthcare
They win.
