My "employee discount" here at work gets me a price of $149 directly through Verizon. So much for that.

I'm thinking the price will drop a bit when the iPhone comes out but curious what others think? I suppose if Amazon currently has it for a penny it won't go down much more than that though; probably not realistic to expect them to drop the price on the family plan.
