Some new total-cost-of-ownership equation options
"Why exactly is Apple suddenly making the iPhone available with these prepaid service plans? Tero Kuittinen, a mobile analyst and vice president of Alekstra, a company that offers services to help phone customers lower their monthly bills, has a theory. He said he had heard from smaller carriers that Apple was upset with the expensive plans offered by Verizon and AT&T.
