So it's $49/m for a G502 (cheap handset) on a cap with $325 worth of calls and 250MB of data and a PS3.
Total minimum cost of ownership is $1197.
You could buy a PS3 for $400 quite easily. Say you're really only paying $797.
Phone is $137 at Unique Mobiles or $109 delivered off eBay (retailer repack).
$797 - $137 = $660 over 24 months or $27.50 per month for the cap itself. TPG offer a similar cap (sans data) for $20/m. Live Connected do the same but with 300MB of data for $20/m (ad supported) or $24/m ad free.
Pendo? No idea what that is.
Basically, there's no sense in tying yourself into this 24 month contract.
