Ladies and gentlemen, start your iPhone engines: Orange says it will start
selling iPhones on monthly contracts and pay as you go on 10
November.
The iPhone 3G will be from free on a £30-per-month contract
and the iPhone 3GS will be from free on a £45-per-month contract —
both for two years.
And if you’re an international movie star or Formula 1 driver, a new
‘traveller’ bundle will include roaming data and calls for an astonishing £125 per
month. All plans included ‘unlimited‘ data, with a fair-use policy of
just 750MB per month. You can add tethering — so you can surf your
iPhone’s connection using your laptop — for £5 per month.
For pay as you go people, the iPhone 3G will cost half the number of the beast, £333, if you top up by £50 when you buy it. That’ll get you 250MB of data each month, plus a year of access to the
BT Openzone Wi-Fi network.
Compare those prices to the iPhone’s home of yesteryear, O2. On O2, you can pick up an iPhone 3G from free on a £34.26-per-month contract, with the iPhone 3GS costing from free on a £44.05-per-month contract, both for two years.
