I am SO curious about the data plan prices. C'mon, it's Edge, not 3G (and yes, I admit, the only reason I know there's a difference is because I started following the whole convergence device hype last October as the iPhone/LG Prada rumors started flying). I just can't imagine that MASSES of people are going to pay the $600 up front for the device, and then another $39.99 monthly for the data plan (standard rate for "PDA device" data plans on Cingular/now AT&T) not to mention whatever you're paying for your voice plan. So if they're thinking this is going to be a device that merits hiring 2,000 extra salespeople, I hope they're not thinking they can double dip with an expensive device AND expensive plan. Just saying...
