Ouch! That's $1,200 after the two years are up.

Harrumph! Comparison data point: Polish GSM/HSDPA provider Orange
offers data SIM starter package with 1GB data and 20 zloty worth
of voice minutes/SMS messages (combined) for 20 zloty (that's
between 7 and 8 bucks US).

And at&t charges *twice* that for 100 MB? *six* times that for 1 GB?
For under $40 (well, 100 zloty), Orange sells rights to another 7 GB.

Capitalism at its finest, I guess :-) . Cheers, -- tlvp
