The new iPhone contract is rumored to be more tightly locked down to AT&T. Check the coverage maps carefully for GSM coverage in the areas you frequent because GSM coverage is spotty. As for incompatibilities between systems it doesn't really matter for anything but the iPhone. I keep my wife and I on different cell phone systems just in case we are in a bad area for one or the other.
FWIW there are good deals for just Phone/TV/internet if you don't want to include the cell phone.
