I was looking to get three iPhones on a family plan (myself, two parents). It is a bit too pricey.
45 for Voice
20 = 10 for two additional lines
90 = 30 x3 for data plans
155 before my 21% corporate discount.
~122 not even including text messaging.
This would be my first phone with a data plan. I was shocked to find that you need to purchase an additional full price data plan for EACH phone.
It looks like every major US carrier does not offer a family data plan. Can anyone confirm this or share their
family plan? I'm not interested in 1 line plan options.

A few months ago I was looking for new phones and came to that conclusion.
That's disappointing. That is quite a bit of change to check email and watch youtube videos from your phone
Thank you for the response Daenris.
This looks like it might be true, however after just checking they charge $40 for an additional smartphone line on a plan, not 0 or $10 like most other carriers do. So adding another iPhone to an AT&T plan costs you $10 for the line and $30 for the data plan, Alltel just charges you the $40 for the additional line.
If they had metered data plans I'd do that, as I never crack 20MB/month data, but I don't view video online: just news sites, blogs, forums, email, and txts.
[edit] I don't know if the iPhone is eligible or not, but it's worth asking.
