@ Nick D & Ozzy: We currently don't know. Supposedly it's going to be exclusive for plans, but I've read plenty of rumors on different blogs that they are going to sell it also on "Amigo" (prepaid/unsubsidized)]]>Jun 29th 2008 10:41PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/
I live on USA right now but it seems like telcel is following the strategy of european companies by subsiding the full price of the phone on highest monthly plans.

And somehow understand that their are some users that are not willing to pay for the phone on high price for services they not willing to use as data plans.

Probably AT&T should follows other countries leads instead of forcing users to pay services they mostly not going to use a high prices. And make this reachable for all audiences.

Are their unsecure of T-mobile? why if they even have 3G yet? probably because of AT&T old fashion way of thinking.

I'm highly surprice that Telcel (most a like and partner of AT&T) rather to follow this great strategy!! congrats!

Now is backwards, last year everybody where purchansing iphones from USA... now sadly we have to buy for other countries like Australia, Europe or probably mexico will see.

Lets wait for a few days after world relese, problably at the end At&T understand where the people is moving and surprice us with some changes for good. lets keep our faith!!]]>Jun 30th 2008 6:53AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/

Could it be real?

(I doubt it)

I bet there's going to be some sort of unlimited data plan like the one named "Plan Universitario" which uses BlackBerries. No doubt the iPhone is more suitable for that kind of market.

We'll see... ]]>Jul 2nd 2008 3:19PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/
They just posted the official plans for México and they are HIDEOUS!! The most expensive is around $80 USD, and ONLY HAS 200 mb!!!! That's a steal. Each aditional KB is 4 cents, so it goes REAL HIGH if you use maps with GPS or even the email!!!!!

I was so hoping to buy it but now I don't know. They can give you an unlimited plan but it starts at an extra $54 USD!! That means $130 USD plus tax and it is SOOO NOT WORTH IT.

Somebody knows how much mb it takes to use it moderately? Let's say, just e-mail, maps (for the gps) and 2 or 3 webpages only?

Would I surpass the limit of 200 mb??

(I think I'd better stick to my unlocked iphone for now)]]>Jul 8th 2008 1:57PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/http://www.neltelcel.com

Living in Mexico your accustomed to monopoly size companies and not having an option, but these brings a new level to the thing. I'm honestly thinking of dropping Telcel 4-ever and getting one with AT&T, live in Tijuana so pretty close to the border.]]>Jul 17th 2008 7:32PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/29/telcels-iphone-pricing-in-mexico-not-bad/
Would that make sense, rather than committing to a 24-month contract with heavy penalties.

Would it even work?]]>Jul 18th 2008 11:58PM
