Not if you plan on making calls, it's not just the data that sucks about Telstra's plans.

You can get Telstra with 1GB, it's only $89 a month for the data pack! yay

If you can get it for free, I'm also very interested.

It's $89 + your cap!

If Telstra could offer an $89/month plan - with a 16gb iPhone for free and 500mb of data, I'd have gone with them. Alas

Because we aren't staff. Just like any other employee discount program designed to encourage retention, it is only available to employees - funnily enough.

Back to the poster. You'll find it difficult to spend 1 GB of data on the iPhone. The only time you'll find it reasonable is when you're in the bush or at an area where you don't get 3G coverage on other networks.
