price question for Iphone 3g

[EnterpriseGlobe]

I am new on the forum and I have a friend who wants to buy an iphone 3g in Canada. I just want to know what is the absolute cheapest iphone plan and what does it get me. And what is a data plan for?

In Canada, Rogers and Fido are the only two carriers providing the iPhone (actually, Fido is owned by Rogers). There are few "suggested" iPhone plans, but you can go ahead and get any plan you want, really. Just make sure s/he adds a data option if s/he is willing to use the internet outside of a wifi zone. Check out the different plans at their website.
