The iPhone after purchase and cell activation is roughly $400 (for the device) and $720/year (for unlimited internet). Pricey?

No contract. And you can unlocked it in your bedroom. And prices will come down even lower, just like the n800 once $499 down to $199. So no exta service charge as you mentioned if you know how to shop. And so you can still use without the phone part, plus I'm sure you have a cell phone anyway, so you could pop that sim into the iphone anyway.
