Not only is the contract length shorter for AT&T, but you also get MORE voice minutes, UNLIMITED data AND free call display. If actually read the entire chart, you'd see that the final cost difference has the Rogers iPhone costing $1000 dollars more than the AT&T iPhone (because of the extra contract year and extra call display fee), while providing SIGNIFICANTLY less value along the way.

It's also important to note that the Rogers plan used for comparison only has 400MB of data, which is peanuts to an iPhone, and the overage charges could potentially cost hundreds of dollars each month.
