You didn't say that this was for business. The cost of your phone is a deductible expense, so does the extra $30-40 matter? Sprint, Alltel and Nextel's unlimited talk is $99, Verizon's is $119. T-Mobile's unlimited talk plans start at $50. Boost PAYGO unlimited is $50. Even Net10 has unlimited talk for $80. Do you have to use an iPhone or is another smart or not so smart phone acceptable?

I have an iPod Touch and a Nokia phone. They have different purposes and give me more features than the iPhone alone [but my son vehemently disagrees]; and it will be much better when I get a Nokia smart phone. Consider your needs before you choose your devices. Gotta have an iPhone? Get a Touch and a basic or not so basic phone. My new phone will be like this, http://www.unwiredview.com/2008/11/08/nokia-n79-review/.

What do you really need?
