I am not sure. You have to think like the masses. Most people aren't the brightest in general and when it comes to electronics and computer technology, they are as stupid as can be.

iphone, expensive.

Dataplan Expensive

I spend my money on my other hobbies.

Verizon Phone Family plan, no data plan, unlimited text message for kids. EVDO Dial up networking for me, with some know how, it uses plan miniutes.

Data Plans are for suckers!

I don't think that this will last long either. A whole lot of the pay apps have been cracked and put online or cloned and put on cydia. So people with a little computer know how can get all of this for free somehow.
