Terrible review guy has no clue what hes talkin about, especially comparing the phone to a laptop. Thats not even a hands on review. And he was false about 50$ for talk and 40$ for network use. The stats are out and on apples site.
$59.99 for talk and unlimited data.

But he is definitely right in saying this won't be the best iPhone, 2.0 will be much better.
