We have the triple play from Comcast for our landline plus internet plus tv. Then my wife and I have pay-as-you-go cells from Virgin Mobile. I would love to have an iPhone but the data plan is out of the question.

I have the iPhone with Rogers. In Canada, with 500 MB of data, it currently costs $50 per month with the "cheapest" plan. Yeah, it's a ripoff.
The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

Do you get unlimited calling and long distance with that plan? If so that would be a very good deal where I live. It's $100 per month for the base package to do any texting or data.Originally Posted by Robert

Damn guys that is expensive.
I have a smartphone unlimited data use that's 24;- per month for the phone and data 2 year contract. htc hd2, much like iPhone but nicer. wife too, she has some Nokia communicator. its a little cheaper. voice phone calzz are about 6 cents a minute.
then I have unlimited data 4.3byte 3g link for my laptops internal sim system that's 9.90 per month.
l
wife has alaptop for 23 or so a month.
then there is the home net line which is 24mbytes and its 38 a month but it includes a wlan box,a network phone which is like a normal wifeless phone but doesnt cost a penny to call lanxlinez anywhere in finland and also a full HDdigital tv tuneR/recorder that cn store 2500 hours of tv recordings and can be remote controlledvia cell phone or bdlwser anywhere...and it also includes a video rental sowe can rent bluray movies direct to home screen 3.40 a film.
so i paylike 50-70 a month but i do get a lot too for it, allthe tvand video services cluding recording/tivo and timeshift and two unlimited mobile data lines and fixed web line and the web phone and even top notch smartphone and laptop every 2 years....and then the system also links to my pcs so can watch movies via them as well, or access music folders etc...I'm pretty happy with the setup. no more renting or buying physical dvds or cds...

I pay up the WAZOO!! I live in Philly....so I have DIRECTV at $95 per month for TV, TIVO. Then we have VERIZON at $130/mth for land-line phone (answering machine and internet security) and they are my ISP. Then I finish off with VERIZON WIRELESS at $105/mth for our 3 cellphones. It hurts every time I bend over. Sheesh.
Too much I pay. $110 a month for Blackberry service.

My land line/long distance/dsl is about $80 and 3 cell phones are about the same. I've been contemplating killing the land line completely.
Directv is $65 until they realize I have too many discounts but I have a lot of channels, dvr and hd.
I get annoyed paying two phone bills and I'm considering dumping everything and going to the cheapest dsl for a while to see if it really makes a difference. I may have to put up with a little slower connection but hey, it beats dial up anyway.
$40/month for voice only. Data is fine if the company is paying for it.
I actually hate smell phones, and how people get all caught up in them as status symbols, etc.
However, this Clapton Fender phone at least looks cool!

I love them :-) Actually I don't know how would I survive without mine. I don't carry any memo or schedule things or pens, so my smartphone has my schedules and memos and everything; checks the weather and alerts of emails and guides me in the car with SatNav...all the way to Facebook etc. if I lose it, I'm completely at a loss what am I gonna do, LOL...can't live without 'em any more no way....good thing it's all online backed up, or I'd REALLY be knee deep in it if I lost my phone...Originally Posted by Tig

Landline home phone, barebones no long distance Verizon service: $27/mo.
AT&T Cell Family Plan...3 phones... a Samsung smartphone of some kind with a touch screen and all that sexy stuff...(my daughter is a cellphone junkie), 2 Motorola Karmas for my wife & I are 'smart' enuff, QWERTY keyboard slides out, I like they're stereo music players and can shoot video - with a microSD card and 'phones, it's practically an i-pod...1100 anytime minutes (unused rollover), unlimited nights/weekends & mobile-to-mobile...unlimited text/messaging... unlimited nationwide long distance, that's $135/mo for the works ($30 of it is the text/mssging)... unlimited data is $10 per phone extra, but not doing that...yet.
Cable for TV & hi-speed net. A gazillion channels (we like movies w/o going out and dropping 30 bucks, and I like sports), 2 HD boxes. Would be about $130 just for the tube and 5$0 for the net, but I walk in with a Direct TV ad & my Verizon bill (could get FIOS or DSL...) and threaten to jump ship once a year, and somehow, they get me 'down' to $130/month for the lot.

AT&T iPhone $62, 450 roll over minutes + unlimited data plan, no texting.
I think the most minutes I ever used in a month was around 25. I don't use it much for talking.
