I plan on using my phone in VOIP mode as often as possible. Since I use
my phone most often at home, I'm hoping I'll be able to use far fewer
minutes per month than normal. That's when the pay-as-you-go SIM plan
starts to really pay off - I don't have to pay for an artificial minimum
of minutes that I won't use. When I run out of minutes, I just buy
more. If I only talk on VOIP during the month, that's zero cost.
Also, I hear that AT&T is charging 10$ more per month for iphones over
their normal plan fees, and even more if you are a business user. So
for a two year contract thats 240$. And if you stay with AT&T after
that, you keep paying that same premium on into the future too. If
you're like me and you keep your smartphones for 4+ years, then that
would be more like 480$ over the 199 initial outlay.
