I agree with those who uberbyte, true and gus. I wanted the iPhone 3G but unfortunately I am not eligible for the discount (had to wait next year). Obviously I want it now but oh well. I wish Apple went with Verizon instead, AT&T are a bunch of idiots. the 3G S costs $600 & $700 for early adopters/no contract iphones. Damn SOBS.

Entirely true.
AT&T does the most disgusting things to get you to be in contract with them longer and longer, and they don’t care one bit about their customers. thank you apple for partnering up with the most despicable company out there.

This is entirely true. Tried to upgrade last week and was told the price would be $200 bucks more – and, since ATT is making up the difference with the discounted price with the new, higher priced data plan the total fee for being a loyal ATT customer is $400 more over 2 years!

ATT will tell you that some customers are eligible to upgrade but the question is when are you eligible?

Sometimes i don’t understand ppl. If you are an “early adopter” then you pay a pretty penny while other ppl don’t. That is how it is and that’s how it will always be.

Everytime I buy a new video card for my comp I know that i just a few months it will be half the cost but i want it now. So i fork over the cash. Why would cell phones be any different?

Dude, get the facts straight before you publish, people who are eligible for upgrade will get it at 199, which is most of att’s customers. Yet your too ignorant to read Att’s website, your pathetic.

This is not true. Some current customers will be eligible to upgrade. And that includes most early adopters of the original iphone, as one columnist has already said. Current customers: check with ATT to see if you are eligible for an upgrade… this guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Just check out ATT’s iphone page.
