My plan is pretty cheap, but for the past three months I've paid $600 (for when I upgraded to the iPhone), $300 (lots of long distance and texting to the US), and this month $200 (more long distance, texting to the US and a trip to NYC (roaming rates in the US are just insane)). I need to cut down on my long distance & texting. I'm making an effort! I think I can get it down to about $100 per month for iPhone & highspeed internet. I don't need cable - all the TV shows I watch can be downloaded or watched for free online. I just switched to an iPhone three bills ago and I’ve been doing a lot of travelling.

For home phone and internet, I pay $70/month. Two cell phones average $15/month each for a total of about $100. As the phones are pay-per-use, this varies a bit. Merging cell phone and home phone is impractical when sharing an apartment, since the front door needs to call whoever is home. When we move to a house the land phone will be history, but I imagine that speed will be a factor in keeping a wired internet connection, since internet has replaced a cable bill. $70 is a deal, but not a great one.
