I already have a blackberry curve for work and also an itouch to play with....no need for the iphone for myself.

My wifes old samsung cell with rogers is crappy and our 3 year deal has expired over a year ago...the iphone would be nice to get for her and we can remain on our $20/month at 50m/mnth...is just find....I don't need the $30/6Gig data plan because when I'm out and about downtown or in a mall we always seem to find some free wifi and more for bordem times....don't need gps as i have one in the car and my blackberry curve has it.

So I can get the iphone for $249 + $35 adm charges that they can not let go and only pay $20/month for voice only...she can use the iphone for mp3's, calendar and surfing in the wall with wifi and don't use mine....

What do you think? we also get 15% off our monthly fees due to having bundles with rogers....

Don't get it... honestly it's not worth it. If you need all those features w/o the data plan then get the N95 since it has wifi, it's a smartphone so u can install ur own apps and it packs a 5mp cam which puts iphone's to shame.

well I was looking at the N95...but it cost a hell lot more then the $250 for the Iphone. I spoke to the retention folks at rogers today where they told me the n95 is at $399 + admin fees but she would be able to get it for me for $299 + admin fee......so $250 is the most I would spent on one of these phones. I know TSCC had it for only 99 but we are existing Rogers client so we will not be able to use it...unless I add another phone to my account and a month later cancel my wifes?
