Looks like AT&T is going to offer iPhone Insurance starting June 6th according to BRG for $13.99 per month. Basically your iPhone will cost you more than your car insurance.
I just bought Chevy Equinox LTC 2010 fully loaded my insurance cost is $56 per month for $36.400 car. I have $50.000 Full body damage, $100.000 Property Damage and I think $5.000 for medical etc with AAA and all that other insurance crap.
Now let’s calculate:
Damaged iPhone 3G 8GB = $99 deductible + $168 insurance + $99 iPhone= $366 per year
Damaged iPhone 3GS 16GB = $99 deductible + $168 insurance + $199 iPhone =$466 per Year
Damaged iPhone 3GS 32GB = $99 deductible + $168 insurance + $299 iPhone =$566 per Year
My car
Damaged Equinox $672 insurance+ $500 deductable = $1172
Do you see the pattern? iPhone insurance is $700 less but iPhone also costs $35.700 than my car.
Verdict: Total AT&T Rip-off
You would pay less for the iPhone if you don’t get the insurance!
