My wife hinted at the fact that she would like a iPhone. This encouraged me to consider getting two new iPhone’s on July 11th. But that conversation has quickly faded when we saw the plan pricing.

For over 7 years we have had our service with T-Mobile. We have there family plan with 2000 minutes a month and 4 phones on the service for a little less then what it would cost to have 1 iPhone on their unlimited plan.

I have issues with AT&T wireless but the price that their pricing for their service is completely non-competitive with the service I have now making the switch is not going to happen.

I predict that sales of the new iPhone will not be as brisk as they think they will be. Primarily because you are forced to be on AT&T, the economy is hurting and people are watching the dollars they are spending and beyond a speed increase the new features for consumers are not that great.

If Apple had replaced the crappy camera in the phone and made it possible to do video with the device that may have been enough to twist my arm to change. So now I am on the hunt for a new phone that will serve the niche I want to use it for.

But sorry AT&T an Apple your phone pricing discount is not enough for me to make the jump to the new phone because your plan pricing honestly really blows.
