as of right now you can only buy an iphone 2 if you are eligible for an upgrade or are a new at&t customer. Typically you are eligible for an upgrade if you only have about 8 months remaining on your current contract, this of course may change b/c as of right now there is NO price for no commitments when buying the iphone. Also any customer that has bought an iphone prior to 5/27/08 are automatically eligible to purchase the iphone 2 at the 199 price tag (way to go apple and not screw us early adopters
)
Company discounts will now apply to the voice and data plans when you have the iphone 2. So if you have the $39.99 voice plan (450 min.) and $30.00 internet package, both will be discounted.
return policy is now 30 days as opposed to 14 days.
MUST BE ACTIVATED at point of purchase.
customer's that bought the phone on 5/27/08 or later will have the option to return the iphone and pay a 10% restocking fee and purchase the new iphone 2 by no later than 8/1/08.
(note the new return policy is only if you purchased your phone from an At&t store)
data plans will be either $30 for regular consumers or $45 if they need the enterprise package.
As of right now at&T has not figured out the price for the 3g iphone for non qualifed upgrades.
THERE WILL NOT BE A "NO COMMITMENT" PRICE FOR THE IPHONE 2, IT WILL BE REQUIRED TO SIGN A 2 YEAR CONTRACT.
I'm fine with all this b/c I am an at&t customer, but all you t-mobiler's, it doesn't look to good. =0(
HAPPY WAITING
