Yep. $100 for 1000 minutes with a 15% bonus on the next refill, 1 year expiration.

For folks who hardly ever use their voice minutes, nothing else even comes close.

Grrr.

(Well, there's Virgin Mobile, but they have almost no network -- I think it's Sprint w/o any roaming onto Verizon.)

Actually at&t prepaid is about the same. $100, 10 cents/minute, 1 year expiration = 1000 minutes

No 15% bonus, text messaging is twice the cost, and I don't see any way to purchase just a SIM card a la T-Mobile:

It looks like the cheapest you can get in is with the $15 R225.

But, it's a lot better than what they had when I last shopped for prepaid.
