The Finnish iPhone 3G provider Sonera has announced it’s pricing for iPhone’s monthly voice, sms and data plans.
Good news: the monthly fees (there’s three main choices) start from 31,69 euros (that’s currently $50,03 dollars). I feared it would be closer to 50 euros, so I’m happy it’s not. Still, 31,69 euros is way more than I’m paying now for my non-3G phone bill.
Bad news: the monthly fees don’t include limitless data. With 31,69 euros you’ll get only 100 Mb per month, with the overflowing traffic costing an arm and a leg (1,49 euros per Mb). In practice you’ll have to keep constantly guessing how many websites you can visit per month. Sonera is including their Home Run wi-fi service with every plan, but the placement of these hotspots are quite limited.
Surprise: the cost of iPhone 3G depends on the monthly plan. 159 euros ($251) for the 8 Gb model in the 31,69 euros per month plan.
