Re: iPhone

I found out today that the way they are able to sell the new one for $200 is because AT&T has subsidized the other $200 in hopes of attracting more subscribers. They will be raising the base monthly service price from $60 to $70.

That seems reasonable. I wonder if they are planning on raising the rates for current subscribers as well, or only new ones?

Re: iPhone

they can't raise rates, well, they can, but they have to notify me at least 30-60 days in advance or something, not doing so would violate the contract....

Re: iPhone

Does anyone know if they're going to do that "subsidy" for folks who are upgrading?

With Verizon, they make you wait until 2 years have elapsed before they give you another phone purchase discount. Having never dealt with Cingular/ATT, I have no idea what their practice is, but I wouldn't be surprised if they said to the current customers: sorry if you want the new one, you have to pay 400...

Also, one critical reviewer at eWeek made the same comment I did: how come no more memory? With all those apps they want you to buy, even a 16Gb phone is going to fill up fast. I've already filled 8gb with music....

Still probably gonna get one though no matter what happens with the above because I'll probably be opening a separate account (the one I have is under my company's account).

You say why, and I say I don't know,
Buffy

Re: iPhone

Buffy, you never signed any agreement for iphone, so it was just like going and buying an ipod. You signed up for a plan through itunes back on your computer at home. And i hope that i can trade in mine for a new one.... though i will miss having metasploit on my phone

So ya didn't bother to read the click-through, eh?

I can assure you you've probably already given away your first born male child...

What, you guys couldn’t even wear one of your tuxedo t-shirts. I mean, I know each one of you have one,

Re: iPhone
