that is a very good deal.
There are potentially somewhat comparable deals (but I think still not as good of a deal) in some prepaid plans (no contract) if you shop around and find deals on minutes. I'm currently on a Tracfone that I purchased in May....$90 USD (£56)--all inclusive (tax, etc)...includes a cheap-o "smart" phone (LG 800) and 1200 minutes (can use for texting (.3/minutes per text) and connecting to the web (minute usage varies, but is pretty high, so I don't use it). So, I'm spending about $7.50 a month for a year, unless I need more minutes, and then I can get the equivalent of 1200 more minutes for about $60.
It works well for my very limited needs, and also meets my cheapskate requirement :-)
