Seems the sleek-minded Apple folks and the AT&T Service provider screwed up big time.
Here's an example, from the hilarious David Pogue of the New York Times.
..."It’s a staggeringly, hatefully complex document, designed by some Monty Pythoneseque committee in charge of consumer confusion.
For starters, although I signed up for what iTunes told me was a $60 plan (450 minutes, unlimited Internet), the bill says I have a $40 voice plan and a $20 Internet plan, and lists them on separate pages.
The first bill, believe it or not, comes to $150. It’s filled with unexplained services and features that were never mentioned during the signup process, like MEDIA MAX, EXPD M2M, VOICE PRIVACY, and AT&T DIRECT BILL.
... It’s an unadulterated waste of paper, ink, and fuel to deliver it. It helps no one; dudes, we’re all on unlimited data plans! Who the heck needs a breakdown like this? If AT&T thinks anyone cares, they should stick it on the Web, for crying out loud."If you have time, read more at David's blog at http://pogue.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/07/18/iphoneatt-billuh-oh/
Of course, the only reason I find this so funny is because I didn't buy one !
