Re: AT&T/Apple deal successful, despite haters' wishes

said by Trollhawk:

Lastly, haters always harp on being locked into a service contract. Why is there no mention of the unsubsidized iPhone option? Subsidized service contracts have existed long before Apple ever thought to build a phone, but it's just now becoming an issue. People can't have their cake and eat it, too.
Because that wasn't available until late.

And then $699.99 for it... AND it's not unlocked. AND AT&T won't give you the unlock code for it.

...and at&t will STILL want a contract for the unsubsidized phone.

I was working for ATT when the first iphone came out they did that crap also and everybody in the room, during training for the new device, shook their head in amazement that ATT would pull that kind of crap. If I'm not mistaken they finally backed down and didn't require it but so far on the 3GS I haven't seen anything saying they are going that route. I'm still amazed they can do something like that.
