I find that 700 minutes for two of us is enough. I don't start long calls on the iPhone. If I receive a call on it that looks like it will go long, I try to call the person back on a landline. Obviously, I don't worry about mobile-to-mobile calls or nightime/weekend calls.

I keep my calls short as much to save the battery as to save money. Battery life is just adequate.

Have no interest in paying for texts. Such a ripoff. Prefer using one of the IM applications, which will work even better with iPhone 3.0's push notification.

Did ATT give you a problem about the 12GB data usage?
