New scam and why I can't frigging sleep..

So since the VA changed my meds I just can't sleep; I hope it does not get as bad as a friend who lives in Mobile. So anywho I was traveling around the net and I came up to mouseprint . com and thats a great site about fineprint and attempts to deceive the public.

So your in the market for a new I-Phone well just read on....

Leave it to marketers to create the tantalizing proposition of getting more for less when you buy their product. Both the new Apple iPhone and Tide 2X are making similar claims. For the iPhone, Apple says you get twice the speed for half the price. In fact, the first generation iPhone sold for $399, while the just released 3G version sells for $199. So far, so true. One catch is that you have to sign a two year contract. But the sneakier one is this:

*MOUSE PRINT: The data plan for the new iPhone is $30 a month, compared to $20 a month for the old one. Over a 24 month period, you will be paying an additional $240 to AT&T for the phone, which, in essence makes it 10% more expensive than its predecessor — not half the price.
