Vodafone announces iPhone pricing
Everyone was anticipating to pay $100+ every month to get the iPhone goodness, and well, they got it.
But the cheapest plan is $80. It includes 120 minutes, 600 texts (unknown if this also includes txts to Telecom mobiles) and 250MB of data.
The next plan up is $130, 250 minutes, 600 texts and half a gig of data.
The most expensive, coming in at a whopping $250, has 600 minutes, 600 texts and one gig of data. It is this plan that the iPhone is $199, 8gb. With the cheapest plan the iPhone (8gb) is $549.
I guess these were anticipated. But ludicrous. With Vodafone NZ hyping up the data plans by releasing no information about them until today, they can expect a bit of a backlash. It has already started happening on the GeekZone forums, and GPForums. Silly Vodafone. Now we wait for the international iPhone plan tables to updated and see where we fit in the scheme of things.
And yeah, I’m thinking I’ll just stick with my current phone now.

$250 a month, when you mentioned it, I thought that was the price of the phone, not per month! Crazy talk.
By the way, the $80 plan will be based off the You Choose so the 600 texts will include vodafone->telecom texts
