      #2 well, check out what an AT&T or Verizon iPhone costs you over a 2 year contact, and then get back to us

      My Sprint SERO + subsidized iPhone (what I have) is the best deal around.

      Yeah, for a prepaid, this is a good deal if you have to have an iphone. I'm even surprised it's 4th gen and not a 3rd.

      Great deal! I wish VM didn't operate off the Sprint network though. Coverage sucks in my area

      Spend $550 for a phone and $35/mo for a plan, or spend $200 for a phone on contract and $75/mo for two years. MATH.

      Straight Talk is great. You can spend $300 on a refurb iPhone 4 and buy a micro-sim from them for unlimited usage for $45.

      Yeah-- check out http://straighttalksim.com or Google "Straight Talk BYOP" for what MoCA_Guy is talking about. They break it down for you and help you figure out which SIM you need and all that. The connection on their network is also WAY faster than what you're gonna get on VirginnMobile or Sprint.
