Possible prices of the iPhone in Mexico

Thanks to the comments of the previous post, I realize that in the code source of the micorsitio of Telcel there are the possible prices of the plans of information for the iPhone 3G in Mexico; they are "secret" in the shape of comments, and although there are still no official tariffs, we can already do a dear of what it will cost us.

In the blog AppleTreeNews they put the finished table, where it is possible to see that there will be 4 information plans, with included minutes but also the estimated price of the team is mentioned, that certainly, it stays much over $ 199 USD that the MacWorld they had promised to be in. This is the table in question.

There are the prices, nothing encouraging certainly. A 100 MB plan is simply derisory, they still believe that we get connected to 56 Kbps. Only in spite of seeing videos in YouTube or photos in Flickr we can reach 100 daily MB, it is absurd to calculate how much we would pay in one month. Additionally, the cost of the plan *ilimitado* is of almost $ 100 USD a month (while in countries as EU costs $ 40). Of course we will see in the smallest letters that if we pass of certain discharge limit, the connection turns of 128 Kbps. Sólo con ver videos en YouTube o fotos en Flickr podemos alcanzar 100 MB diarios, es absurdo calcular cuánto pagaríamos en un mes. Adicionalmente, el costo del plan *ilimitado* es de casi $100 USD al mes (mientras que en países como EU cuesta $40). Seguramente veremos en letras pequeñísimas que si nos pasamos de cierto límite de descarga, la conexión se vuelve de 128 Kbps.
Now I realize that I was not so removed in my predictions when I said that for an unlimited plan, a month dollars would be paying almost $ 90, for my bad luck. Also, $ 199 USD for the iPhone turned into $ 311 USD, typical of this country, so I have even more reasons to buy to me an unblocked iPhone and to activate it with Jailbreak, before paying $ 2,500 USD to a company with Telcel.
