So unless you are a klutz and have a problem hanging onto your iPhone, it might not pencil out for you. The other problem is that you have to buy your iPhone 3G S at Best Buy in order to qualify for the service. But there aren't many options out there for insurance, at least that I have found. You may be able to get some coverage via our renters or homeowners insurance, so I think I would check that out before I spent any money on this plan. </p>
