I just got finished looking at how much this phone is going to cost me. My wife and I both want either a BB or an iPhone. Iphone, family plan, 1400 minutes, 200 messages a piece, data package = $131.00 a month BBStorm, family plan, 1400 minutes, 250 messages a piece, corporate data package = $185.00 a month. Over 2 years...Verizon is an extra $1,296.00...OUCH!!!!

Iphone, family plan, 1400 minutes, 200 messages a piece, 2 Iphone data packages = $159.99+tax. AT&T's pricing matches Verizon dollar for dollar.

I don't see how you figure that. I have not been able to get that to equate. In fact, I went to the Verizon store on Wednesday and asked them what the cost difference would be for my current plan and a BB plan. I currently pay $95.00 for my wife and I. They said tack on an additional $44.00 (37 after corp discount) a piece for corporate email and there we would have it. So...$169.00 (with corporate discount) I went to the ATT site and came out to (after corporate discount) $131.00 I will certainly check with a rep first, but those are the numbers that have been given to me by both sites and company reps.

VZW=89.99 for 1400 min for 2 lines. $10 for 2 txt packages(hint vzw's includes pic & flix that an iphone cant do)250 messages and then $59.98 for the 2 Data packages ($29.99 each)=$159.97!! If you are talking corporate email than an extra $30 will need to be added for both lines. But your also getting better coverage & Reliability with VZW and Storm can do a lot more. Some can say that its slower but it does a lot more!!!

Well for coorprate email it is $44 a data package, but thats only if they use a blackberry enterprise server. If your company does not use one then you only need the $29.99 package.

You dont have to get the corporate email. The iphone doesnt get corporate email so its the same price $160 a month for both. DURP!

you have no way to repute 60s comments, so you bring up a fact that a company is struggling, yet the price factor still remains for customers... all companies are hurting now... sprint more than others, but everyone is still hurting... try responding to the price comment, and get back to him...

Yes this is correct, VZW and AT&T are basically 99.99% the same when it comes to pricing. Be it PDA or not....

i was just about to post that, it seems ATT sales reps dont sell with integrity

the pricing is the same, but att has rollover, so if u arent an idiot with minutes, u get more alltogether.

ha, yea sprint is the best company ever, wonder why they lose 1.5 million customers every 3 months...They really must be the superior phone company. Man I need to cancel my contract and switch to them immediatley.
