iPhones: Buying Them Online

Believe it or not, curiosity doesn't always kill the cat. But let's get into the actual topic of discussion as we aren't interested in cats. Our interest is about the speculation on the cost of the much talked about electronic gadget, Apple's iPhone. This amazing tool is painting the world red. Everybody is talking about it ever since Apple announced iPhone's advent with the contract for Cingular Wireless.

As you already know that the iPhone costs $499 for the 4gb. The price for the 8gb phone is expected to be $599. So, the area of concern is to find out about the service plan. There is hardly any information about this or whether the services that are added on would turn out to be on the expensive side. The dearth of proper information has led to a wild goose chase because rumors are spinning that the costs for the user would mount up to $3,000.

iPhone Service Plan Costs 

The basic monthly service plan costs $59.99 for a start and allows 450 talk minutes. The minutes for night and weekend are 5,000. Other added facilities such as unlimited data, unlimited mobile to mobile and the facility of visual voicemail are provided. Besides these, 200 SMS text messages and rollover minutes are also provided.

If you are wondering about the mid level monthly service plan, it comes for a price of $79.99. The coverage for this plan is for 900 talk minutes. The big bonus is unlimited night and weekend minutes, unlimited data, and unlimited mobile to mobile. The facility of visual voicemail, 200 SMS text messages, and rollover minutes remain as part of the package.

The premium monthly service plan costs $99.99. The plan covers about 1,350 talk minutes. It provides all the benefits that are covered in the mid level monthly service plan. But the fee to activate the iPhone costs $36.

For those of you who are making plans to buy an iPhone, here is some good news. Activation is now easier because you can even activate the iPhone from home by logging into iTunes. Then you can just follow the instructions. Sounds easy and simple, right?

The downside to this is the two year commitment contract. This may be like a penalty for those who don't want to stick to this for as long. But you've got to prepare yourself for the long haul.

For online purchase of the iPhone, remember the availability of the iPhone is quite select during the first 30 days after it's official release date. So the best thing to do is purchase directly from the Apple Store. After a period of 30 days, the iPhone will be freely stocked for consumers to purchase from other established online vendors.
