So the Mrs. and I are sans contract right now with AT&T. I'm thinking of upgrading to an iPhone, since we have a credit where it would cost nothing to buy the phone. But I'm trying to be smart about this. I know these cell phone contracts are sneaky as hell, and I'm trying to be as knowledgeable as possible before doing this. I'm sure a few of you on here have an iPhone, and so I have some questions:

--If I'm reading AT&T's site right, the data plan for iPhone does not cover text messaging. Is that correct?
--Is the $69 protection plan worth it?
--What is the bottom line price of your monthly bill? And if you could break it down for me (including the type of plan you have), that would be swell.

TIA.
