$199 for an iPhone sounds good - but turns out the plans which have now been announced suck worse than Canada’s plans. The $199 phone comes only on a 2yr contract of $250 per month and only 1GB Data. Watch the local New Zealand News where the reporter absolutely rips apart Vodafone NZ for these outrageous plans!
