Actually, phones should be $50.00 and local usage $25.00 a month, flat. That's what a land-line phone is. Verizon throws in unlimited national long-distance for something like another $30.00 a month, flat. Also fair. Cell phones are more convenient at times. They are also less reliable and they sound like crap...so convenience vs quality for a cell phone is a wash. A reasonable price for a cell phone is, therefore, in my opinion, the same as that for a land line phone. $50 for the phone, and $55 a month for local and long-distance service, flat. Period. You want "smart phone", internet, and/or broadband, camera, videos, music on your "phone"--sure, that's extra. But that, to me, is not a phone.
