The cost per GB included in the base rate is actually inaccurate, because you haven't deducted the service cost and the support costs and the "extra services" costs, like email, flickr, website etc.

Of course that makes the overage charges look even worse.

But you have to remember that the under cap prices are based on the AVERAGE consumption and not the max consumption, which will actually push the cost per GB up dramatically.

The cost per GB base on max consumption is probably of the order of pennies per GB. Based on average consumption of around 5GB per month it's probably closer to $1 per gb.
