5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
Excess data costs 10c per megabyte, and you'll pay 50c per megabyte if you roam away from 3 in Australia. Prefer the 32G iPhone 32GS? That'll cost an extra $5 per month. If your appetite for calls and data isn't that great, you can still get a $0 upfront 8G iPhone 3G or 16G iPhone 3GS on the $79 cap ($650 of voice/SMS/MMS and 1G of data). An extra $10 per month gets you a 32G iPhone 3GS. Right... that's an extra $240 over two years, yet the difference between the two models is only $161 at the Apple Store. Still too rich for your your taste? There are also $39 and $49 caps, with $150 of calls and messages plus 150M of data, or $350 plus 250M. If the call allowances are OK but you need more data, add-on packs are offered at $6 for 500M, $10 for 1G, and $20 for 3G (all per month). How does this compare with Optus, for instance?
