The iPhone goes corporate

After a long wait the iPhone has gone corporate. The offer is fairly simple and does not offer much over getting the iPhone as an individual, except that your local IT department can now just call their usual AT&T business representative. The pricing and the plans will remain the same as an individual purchase and still require a 2-year agreement.

The details are as follows:

$45 per month for unlimited data, visual voicemail and 200 SMS messages, $55 for 1,500 SMS messages, $65 for unlimited SMS messages. For an extra $25 per month you can add a 20MB monthly data plan that is good for 29 countries, $60 per month increases that limit to 50MB. Activate by March 31, 2008 and qualified accounts will receive a service credit of $25 per month that is good through December 31, 2008.

While this could be good news for those looking to convince their IT department to get them a company issued iPhone, I am still not convinced the iPhone will be a BlackBerry replacement in the business market.
