Apple has also provided a link for new wireless customers to find which phone plan is the best fit or perhaps the most bang for your buck. The link fails to include Verizon's newest family share plan, though. Share plans start at $60 a month for 2G of data and they go up to $100 for 10 GB of data. For each smartphone added on the plan, customers pay an extra $40 (basic lines add $10).
