straight talk is a no-contract provider. it is month to month. and, yes you have to buy your own phone if you bring an IPhone there. i bought mine from ebay. i bought my first IPhone, a 3GS for $250. but, what i payed for my phone does not matter. smile.

>> hi fred,
>> you can pay whatever you like for whatever phone you choose.
>> so, as i said, no contract and 45 dollars a month. works for me.
>> say you sign a 2 year contract with another well known company, now you pay 85 dollars a month for the plan. so, now multiply 40 dollars times 24 months and, what do you end up paying for your phone? you got it, 960 dollars. no way will i ever pay that much or more for a phone. smile.
