I have a few questions about pre-paid plans. I've tried searching for the answers but haven't found anything.

Anyway, a few questions for people who went through the process of getting a pre-paid iPhone.

What are the available text plans? AT&T's regular Go-Phone text plans are $5 for 200 and $20 for unlimited. I was hoping for a $10 for 1500 plan like the contracts have.

I heard there was an issue where you would get a lot of text messages (hopefully free) about your usage. I also heard that they were working on a fix for this. Is it still an issue?

Moving to a pre-paid might make sense for me since they have a 650 minute plan, which is just about what I need. Unfortuantly the contracts go from 450 minutes to 90 with a $20 price increase, which is more than i need. If I can get 1500 texts for $10 on a pre-paid, I'll only be paying $10 more a month. If, for some reason, I were to cancel within the first 18 months, it's worth it! :)

Thanks
