I totally agree with you on the pricing. Not only are they ripping their customers off, but their service doesn't even work that well. After a couple of weeks, I quit my contract and switched to Verizon.
I'm really surprised the iPhone and gadgets like it are doing so well in this economy. It's amazing to me that with everyone struggling so much that they still have money for an iPhone and the bills that come with it.
Well, you have to hand it to them. since they have exclusive distributorship for the iPhone, and since the iPhone is the best-selling phone nowadays, then who could fault them for gouging their customers for more money?
