How much do you really pay for an iphone?

I'm planning on buying an 8gb iphone. I am already a customer for At%26amp;t and want to know a few things.


1) can i put my old sim card into the iphone and still use it?


2) How much will i pay for a new 8gb iphone with no contract?


3) will i have to pay more per month than what i'm paying now?


4) if you have an iphone, is it worth it?|||1. Yes you can put in your old sim card and use it


2. Depending on where you find one. ebay has them for $400 with no contract. If i was you I would rather buy it in the store for $200 with a contract.


3. Yes, because AT%26amp;T require you to buy a voice plan + $30 unlimited data plan for the iphone 3g.


4. I have a 3G iPhone and I would be lost without it. I dont know how I lived without it. I have all my email address synced in, So i never get on the computer to check my email, which is great for someone thats always on the go or doesnt have much time. I have all my bill dates reminders, so my bills are never late. I can record lectures from professors for hours of recording. If im lost somewhere i can get easy directions with street view to show me a real picture of the street and where I need to go. Its an incredible device. You really wont find one iPhone user that regrets getting an iphone.|||i just bought the iphone 8gb i love it the only thing i hate is it doesn't have video capability.. i got mine through at%26amp;t with a 2yr contract and only paid 99.00

|||AT%26amp;T is the only carrier for the iPhone and it's the only place you can buy it with a warranty, so if you already have an AT%26amp;T contract you can extend your current contact to use on your new iPhone.





Data plans are required for all iPhones (makes the apps work, otherwise it is just a regular phone) and cost $30 / month.





The cheapest call plan is $39.99 with 450 rollover minutes.





So, where to buy the actual phone? You can go to your local AT%26amp;T Wireless store... they will charge you $199.00 for the phone + sales tax ($10-20 depending on your state) and will sign you up for the plans listed above.





Or, you can save money by also buying from AT%26amp;T but purchasing online. You probably won't have to pay sales tax and instead of $199.00 for the phone you have the option to purchase a refurbished phone (one who's box has been opened but then AT%26amp;T inspected it, and made it as new...). These cost just $99.00 for the same iphone 3G 8Gb that your local store would charge you $199 for.





Here are the current deals for the iPhone 3G 8Gb (lowest price = $99.00 with free shipping):

If you don't want an AT%26amp;T plan, you can by an unlocked iPhone without the contract, these will not have a warranty however. Prices fluctuate but you can see a huge list here:
