@alasaarela I think if the mobile operator could offer more service plans with the purchase of an iPhone, then Nokia would be finished.
– replying to: How is Nokia going to answer $99 iPhone 3G? Apple is definitely taking major steps to OWN the smart phone market.
@alasaarela Agreed, but lots of people are using iPhone on prepaid w/o unlimited data
– replying to: @mobileslate I am sure the carriers will gradually offer better plans. The unlimited data is still integral part of the experience, though.
