Another national player gets into the <a href=\"http:\/\/philvelez.com\/blog\/?p=69\">iPhone<\/a> game. I love the iPhone but like most who do, I hate my AT&amp;T plan. I&#8217;m struck with it until September 2011, but I will be watching how Verizon handles the iPhone roll out and its pricing plan. Like most <a href=\"http:\/\/philvelez.com\/blog\/?p=334\">smartphone<\/a> billing plans, the range generally begins at $100-150 a month. My AT&amp;T bill is getting out of hand, though I now use my iPhone to connect to my laptop at home through something called <a title=\"Wikipedia\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Tethering\" target=\"_blank\">tethering<\/a>. Great technology, and it helps me get rid of my Internet provider. The new Verizon iPhone may have a hotspot feature which would allow you connect the iPhone up to five other Internet devices. That would be awesome. I&#8217;ll definitely will be watching how Verizon unfolds the iPhone and how it takes care of its customer demand and service. I&#8217;ll let you know when my contract is up with AT&amp;T. I can&#8217;t wait, but with those ridiculous termination fees, I&#8217;ll just have to.<\/p>\n<p>Mashable has a great comparison chart of the iPhone: <a title=\"Mashable\" href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/2011\/01\/11\/iphone-comparison-infographic\/\" target=\"_blank\">AT&amp;T vs. Verizon<\/a>.
