Yeah I have ATT. They probably have the best plan for your money, especially with the RO. I had Alltel for a long time and it's comparable though the coverage is limited.
Well that's good, we got free calls yo.

Oh and the $30 data and messaging package for iPhone includes text messages.
Are you sure? Because when I try to buy the iPhone it has a text message option to add to it. And some other guy I work with said that texts are separate.

If you really want the iPhone then I would suggest wait until the summer because that's when Apple is planning on releasing the next gen iPhone. The big difference will be that the new iPhone will be released to numerous carriers instead of just AT&T. And with the introduction of any new handset on any carrier comes great deals on rate plans and rebates on phones.

Right now AT&T and Verizon are the most expensive carriers. Verizon trumping all of them. And Sprint is by far the best coverage, phones and price with the unlimited data, text and minutes plan they have. They're network is solid and extensive to the point that even Verizon piggy back's off of Sprint's network to deliver "the best 3g coverage in America".

I would wait until early summer to see what upcoming phones are going to be released since the MWC just ended less than a month ago. With new phones comes better rate plans and with the open handset alliance being driven by Google, these carriers are forced to bring the prices of their plans down.
There might be better deals the problem is the newer iPhones are going to be over $300 again. $99 for the 8GB iPhone isn't bad at all. And since I have so many rollover minutes I'm not going to switch providers.
