Metaio mobile plugin seems to be quite powerfull and has good functionality (http://www.metaio.com/software/mobile-sdk/). Is there plugin for Unity (iPhone/Android)?

2I fear not and I doubt you will ever see one unless you create it yourself as writting a plugin for a technology only 5 unity users ever will license means that the plugin would need to cost several hundred USD per license to not work out as a total lose for the dev.
Did you consider looking at the QualComm AR SDK which has a unity version (works with unity 3.3 at the time, a 3.4 compatible version is in the works) and is free?
Or string for iOS which is quite a bit costly too (but likely a significantly cheaper than metaio as they are willing to print $3000 fees on there but have others only on request which implies a high 4 to low 5 figure fee) but has unity integration as a “base feature”?
The Unity plugin has been added for iPhone and Android last year.
Have a look at the Getting Started to get an idea

very cool :) Although the information is not fully correct (requires Unity Pro for targ platform -> on mobile you don't need pro for plugins, native code hook in only requires pro for win / mac) the rest definitely is very sweet :)
