I had bubbles developing underneath my screen. I had no warranty cause it was unlocked. I'm happy with the first gen iphone. I just want warranty on my phone, hence me wanting to get it via rogers.

The number of people who feel entitled to things nowadays just makes me want to beat someone's face in.

hey guys.. i just got this from hofo..

- iPhone 3G bundles released June 27 are not the ONLY price plans available to our customers, they are the high value plans that allow our customers to use this device to its fullest and offer considerable savings over separate voice and data plans that exist in market today.
- As always, our customers have many choices, they can use their existing voice and smartphone data plans if they wish, including for example, selecting from our new data pricing (ranging from $30 for 300MB to $100 for 6GB or $50 Flex Rate plan) and then adding a voice plan that suits their own needs, or they can choose a voice and data plan to best suit their individual needs.
- Customers do not need to take the value packs, and can order most other features a la carte, such as $7 for Caller ID.
- With respect to existing customers, all customers' accounts are unique. If desired, customers can keep their existing voice service plan and pick a separate data plan (not in the iPhone 3G bundle) to meet their needs.
- They will need to check their upgrade eligibility but any customer with a monthly service fee that is over $30 for example, can upgrade to an iPhone 3G at $199 (for the 8GB model). Other pricing may be available depending on the customer's individual information.

AT&T to sell iPhone without contract

AT&T to sell new iPhone without contract for $400 extra

NEW YORK (AP) -- AT&T Inc. will sell the new version of the iPhone without a service contract for $400 more than the price with a two-year plan, a break from the rules set when Apple Inc.'s popular touch-screen gadget debuted last year.

Two new models of iPhones go on sale July 11 for $199 and $299, depending on the amount of memory, with two-year AT&T contracts. The no-contract versions will cost $599 and $699 and will be sold sometime "in the future," AT&T said.

Buyers would then go month-to-month on AT&T's service. AT&T said the no-contract phones would be "locked" to work only on AT&T's network, as the contract-laden phones will be.

The new iPhones will have faster data access and more accurate navigation capabilities. The cheaper model will have 8 gigabytes for internal memory, half that of the more expensive model.

The first version of the iPhone was sold in the U.S. without a contract, but AT&T would activate it only with a two-year contract. Many phones ended up being "unlocked" from AT&T's network and shipped overseas.

Also Tuesday, AT&T revealed that the iPhones will go on sale at 8 a.m. local time on July 11. Last year's iPhone launch, which happened in the evening, had Apple devotees camping outside stores in anticipation.

Levitron 07-01-2008 11:30 AM

Would you pay, say, $400 for a HUP?

stuff99 07-01-2008 11:55 AM

yes I would

RFlush 07-01-2008 05:41 PM

Wrong thread...

VWG60 07-01-2008 06:12 PM

Well if the allow hardware upgrades and still keep existing voice plans.... than yea.... but screw edge and their charges...

FALLEN87 07-01-2008 06:50 PM

I was reading the other thread by jeff19 and something copied from hofo said that you could still keep your existing plan and not have to sign up for a iphone data plan and if you are eligible for a upgrade you can get it for 199$? Is this true

cspec 07-01-2008 08:03 PM

Hmm...

So, basically. The new iPhone consists of:

- new GPS chip
- slightly changed design with a flush 3.5mm jack
- 3G technology


is this IT???

Is the phone even any faster?

$199 is the price with a 3 year contract so i highly doubt it, it's probably somewhere in the 599 range along with AT&T if rogers decides to offer it without

heres teh final word..
and im gonna shoot every single one of those friggin rumors n rumblings out there in the open
u can trust hofo to an extent, and i kno some members on hofo are really high up there

My position at the moment is a iPhone retail rep
NOTHING..i repeat NOTHNG is confirmed in regards to hardware upgrade policies and buy out pricing

the only info that is confirmed are the plans and hte 199/299 pricing of the iphone itself
