iPhone Ping!
If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.
Yep, that will lock them in now! They will not even consider another carrier. AT&T has made them happy loyal customers now, for life. /s
I take it Apple is getting ready to open it up to another provider and AT&T wants to make it more painful to jump ship. I heard they are working on a Verizon version.
AT&T sucks
The market isn’t as locked for the iPhone any more with phones like the Droid coming along that do more. For a while they could take the contract risk because there weren’t a lot of competitive phones out there.
I also wouldn’t be surprised if Apple didn’t raise the wholesale cost. I believe AT&T pays over $400 per line wholesale to Apple.
Dont sound smart or economic to me
.....having ATT as a phone carrier sucks almost as much as having obama as president
AT&T is Satan.
It’s not just AT+T, all the carriers are now charging $300+ early termination fees for smart phones.
Gee, makes me want to immediately go out and jump on an AT&T contract. Nothing like shooting yourself in the foot. AT&T phone service sucks to begin with and now they are trying to blackmail their few customers?
If you can break the contract, and jump to another carrier, where you don't have the monthly fee — you'll come out ahead.
More AP propaganda telling us that big business is bad and is trying to gouge us. I am smelling a Telecom Reform Act from the Obama Administration in the near future.
Yep...they are definitely working on a Verizon iPhone...I asked a Verizon employee...Shouldn’t be much longer.
Verizon iPhone 4G Release Date In 2010 & Voice Plus Data Transmission Likely On Verizon iPhone: Report
20 May, 2010
Lately there have been many reports of Verizon iPhone 4G release date from different sources. Some say its June 2010 while others say it will be 2011 and 2012.
With the latest reports of Apple placing order for 24 million CDMA units, the expectation for iPhone 4G release date with Verizon is rising.
Hours after an AT&T executive said yesterday that they were unfazed by the prospect of an Verizon iPhone, reports started cming in that Verizon iPhone could offer simultaneous voice and data transmission over a precursor to its LTE 4G network.
Boy Genius Report relayed a rumor yesterday that a new Verizon iPhone could use Voice over Rev. A, or VoRA, network. According to Pcworld.com this connectivity will allow simultaneous voice and data connections. Currently, these features are not available on the carrier’s CDMA network.
“According to our source, Verizon has been testing VoRA as a precursor to VoLTE, and as long as the network upgrade and iPhone release are aligned, we should see this happen. If it happens,” the report said.
If you must do ATT, just get the android phone. I’ve had both, the android is a better device and 1/4 the cost... plus, you don’t have to play the apple games.
