I currently do not have a iPhone I was waiting for the 4G, HD whatever they plan to call it. With the early contract cancellation rates going up http://www.betanews.com/article/ATT-to-raise-twoyear-termination-fee-by-86-on-iPhones-smartphones/1274479769 <http://www.betanews.com/article/ATT-to-raise-twoyear-termination-fee-by-86-on-iPhones-smartphones/1274479769>and dropping the price of the data plan by 5 dollars and limiting it to 2 gig only has me looking to android.
Do I plan on canceling a cell phone account if I get one? no Do I believe that I will have more then 2 gig a month usage? more than likely not I hear from too many people about network connection issues on top of these 2 new items that makes me not want to deal with the company all together At this point having all my music in iTunes and the having the convenience of not caring a phone and my iPod everywhere and going to 1 device is still the only thing holding me attention to the iPhone. When it comes down to it its all about service and convenience. I buy from iTunes because it is convenient. If I do go with the android I will move all my music into doubletwist <http://www.doubletwist.com/dt/Home/Index.dt> and never buy from iTunes again.
