"A year ago, page after page of ink was spilled by prophets of doom fretting about the iPhone and how it would surely not be as good as this or that other phone. Were they right or did the first year of the iPhone live up to its hype?"

Before I switched to AT&T and the iPhone, I had an HTC T-Mobile Windows Mobile 5 phone. It was the same slow EDGE network as I have now with AT&T, and the price I payed was about $100 a month for unlimited data and about 900 minutes of talk time (I think weekends were unlimited).
I pay about the same for my iPhone for a similar plan, and the iPhone is light years ahead of the HTC. I mean, I never want to see a stylus again. Also, while AT&T isn't quite Verizon when it comes to coverage, it's a lot better then T-Mobile, at least in Brooklyn.
I chose the 900 minutes as the iPhone is my *only* phone. Home, travel, and business.
So price wise, it's about the same as other carriers with their smart phones.
