Is $30/month about the best I can hope for for a unlimited talk/text + little bit of data?

Republic Wireless is a great deal. Unlimited talk/text and 3G data is $25.00. Throttled after 5GB of data. Just have to buy a Moto X, which comes with a Chromecast as a promo. Could also buy a Moto G for $149.00, which does not come with a Chromecast.
