Now that I’ve seen the iPhone pricing plans from Optus I’m pretty sure I want to get one. I’ll only get the cheapest capped plan of $19 a month to start off with and if I need more I can increase it. I only send about 5 sms a month and maybe one phone call, so I’m sure it’ll be alright.
I’m disappointed with Optus, because I expecting some real competition with the Telstra Sidekick which has unlimited data. The iPhone only comes with 100mb data on the cheapest plan and on the $79 plan comes with a gigabyte. I suppose I’m only going to be using this for a bit of IM or small research, not to torrent off or anything silly. I have wifi at home and I can always borrow from wifi hot spots.
I’m looking forward to using bluetooth and gps on the iPhone, and the possibility of geo tagging photos. I hope to see some nice applications in the iPhone App Store, and I hope most of them are free. I have an iPod touch and I have really liked the Installer.app, so hopefully someone can get that working on the iPhone 3g.
Uh. These posts are starting to get Yum9me sized.
