Vodafone is introducing two cheaper iPhone plans into New Zealand, reports Stuff. The new plans follow criticism of Vodafone’s iPhone plans as being too expensive in New Zealand. Overseas the plans often give unlimited data, while in New Zealand no plans allow this, notes Stuff.
The new $40 a month plan will give 250MB of data, 20 minutes of voice time, and 100 texts. The 8GB model costs $699 and the 16GB model will cost $849 on this plan.
The $60 a month plan will give 250MB of data, 60 minutes of voice time and 200 texts. The 8GB model will cost $649 on this plan, the 16GB model $799.
The previous cheapest plan was $80 per month, which gave 250MB of data but 120 voice minutes and 600 texts. The 8GB model sells for $549 on this plan, the 16GB model for $150 more.

Those in the US should stop complaining about the cost of data.
