What is the cheapest you can buy and new one from and where can you get it?

Are there any other, cheaper but good alternatives to an apple iphone?

Is the internet good on these phones and do yo have to pay for internet use, if so how much?

you can buy straight from the store.
but if you want cheap
you can try and bid on some on ebay but sometimes those go higher than retail price.
but that's your best bet.
and make sure you talk to the seller before you buy and make sure its authentic and that they have it. like make them take a picture of the phone and like your name or something.
DON'T BUY FROM ANYWHERE IN ASIA
they are fake phones.

there are some phones that are touchscreen.
like the voyager, the dare, the VU, etc...
just go look online at like the verizonwireless.com website, att.com website, and other places.

you do have to pay for internet use, but i'm not sure how much
my dad works there but i haven't asked him about it.
i know like the lowest bill for the iphone is $100 a month I THINK.
i might be wrong but i can ask my dad when he comes home from work :]

i hope this helps and answers all your questions! :]

a better alternative is the nokia n96. ive had the iphone and sent it back for 1 example you cant bluetooth a pic to another phone only to your pc.and its very compicated to get going with it
