| | Samsung, Toshiba and SanDisk all have 32GB microSD cards on the way (ie - 3rd quarter '09). Price isn't a huge deal if you want the space. These cards are also rumored to have 2x the transfer speed as current top end 16GB cards.  |

| | They're still fucking us. Have a look at how well TechCrunch puts it: Quote: |
If AT&T really wanted to reduce monthly iPhone bills it could do something very simple: Start including SMS plans in its unlimited data plans. After all, SMS is data, yet it conveniently falls outside of AT&T’s unlimited service. The reason for this is obvious: Text messages are an absolute cash cow for AT&T and the other carriers. They are also an absolute rip-off, as they cost the carriers next to nothing to transmit. Instead of just folding these SMS fees into the unlimited data plans like rival Sprint does, AT&T wants to pretend to save consumers money by offering a limited data package for $10 less a month. What a joke.
| I was ok with 200 texts being rolled into my initial data plan 2 years ago. but in this day and age of data and pipes, they're scamming us with this $5 per month crap for texts.
anyway, they are much better at speaking their minds at Tech Crunch |

| | | yeah, good call. that's why text messages are <= 160 characters, because that's the static packet size of cell tower system messages. that shit all goes along through side channels.
But still, I don't hate them for charging for something that's relatively free for them.. they still have overhead associated with it anyway

| | I thought the limit of 160 was because the guy who created it... Why text messages are limited to 160 characters | Technology | Los Angeles Times
Anyway, I would venture to say I have the best phone plan on this board. Correction, best value. I, (well my family), pays $109.99 - $25 employee discount my dad gets from his company, for 5 family members, unlimited text, 7pm nights, and unlimited data. That is the total price, not for each line.
