This is their desperate attempt to grab as many re-upped contracts as they can before Verizon and Apple team up. They know if they can lure enough people with an iPhone (even though it's not the 4), they might be able to save face before Big Red destroys their market share.

This just solidifies in my mind that the big red apple roll out is just around the bend.

AT&T touting the lower cost of their data plans is hilarious.

The $15 plan is limited to 200 MB/month.  Conveniently metered at a level most Android/iPwned/BooBerry users would overshoot with regularity, with little to moderate use.  If you exceed that limit, they hit you with another $15 up-charge.  200 MB/month - LMAO - that's about as useful as their MediaNet plan in this day and age.  Their 2 GB/month plan is $25.  Hell of a multiplier right there folks.  Go figure...

Marketeers!  Got to love 'em!

Hope you notice their generosity was a few months after they did away with the all inclusive data plan and upped the price of all the rest of them as well.

so now you will almost certainly go over your plan on data

while other carries move to the unlimited everything AT&T is happily imposing limits on your account but not your bill

"this isn't a bad option for anyone wanting an iPhone without worrying about wonky antennae issues."

 

And customers that don't care they're with one of the worst rated providers in the nation.

AT&T is consistantly rated at or near the bottom on anyone's survey. (Except their own of course.)

I just bought a 'refurb' iPhone 3GS and they gave me one in a brand new box instead. It's a 16GB black.
