This is cool but if you could, please add prepaid? Specifically add the following?

- 4th column for StraighTalk as one of the carriers

- 5th column for Tmobile as one of the carriers)

- Cost over the entire life of the plan

See:

- Tmobile: http://9to5mac.com/2012/09/10/t-mobile-unveils-its-big-plans...

- StraighTalk: http://9to5mac.com/2012/07/30/review-the-iphone-on-straight-...

Note: Since StraightTalk resells AT&T using their own antennas, the available service would be same. Correct?
