Ya, but if you have the 2GB plan, that’s almost 10 hours of video chat over 3G. That is, if you don’t use any other data.

I pay $45/mo on at&t now for a 2gb data plan,
And that’s including Tethering, so I share
that 2gb between phobe and laptop. I have
225 apps and 9 e-mail accounts on push/fetch,
use Gps constantly, stream radio and download
itunes – and I never have gotten to 500mb/mo of usage.
I have rock star connectivity everywhere.
And it’s a bargain!!! If you can’t pay $1.50 a day for
data on an iPhone, why have an iPhone???
Video calling is a privilege and a techno-luxury,
we are so lucky! No whining!! Pay for it!!!
And, I bet skype will streamline thier app in updates
So uses few packets…

I wouldn’t mind the 200mb but its expensive. I ran my iPhone to the end of my 2 year contract and of course they dont offer any better a deal once the phone is paid for. So to save money I asked to run it without data. Nope. So instead I have to run it jailbroken and on Tmobile. Saving $100/mo. Woot!

200MB data plan? I thought our operators suck big time over here in Europe, but as I can see, we’re pretty good compared to AT&T with our data plans, lol :-)

Progress vs. greed is a vicious cycle. Just look at texting.
