Wi-Fi..................... about $14 more
Buletooth................. about $8 more

All I am trying to convey is that you are paying for the additional features and it can add up relatively quickly.

It should be noted that volume makes a difference. You can buy an EVDO modem retail (no contract) for less than $65. Complete product. Not just the chipset.
