[iPaul]

How come I don't see the option for nights and weekends starting at 7PM?

Need that...

Thanks Tiger. Always helping us out!

This might calm some nerves too. This is a link on the side of the page to some "pre-purchase understandings."

I just put it up in the original post too.

Finally the wait is over and all the questions can be answered.



At&t iPhone

Q. I just upgraded my phone recently. Are there any penalties or restrictions for upgrading to iPhone right away?
A. No. Everyone can upgrade to iPhone right away.

Here's a cool .pdf file that might help explain a few things too.

Just read that in the FAQ about upgrading! Awesome news! Now I can print that out and shove it into any reps face telling me I need to be in my upgrade period...(yes I have a grudge about that, but I can stop now! )

so just to clear things up..you DO have to have a credit/debit card to purchase the iPhone?

 

[RHJS]

I don't think so it says you have a choice to either do it at the store or on iTunes.

No not to purchase.

This is great news. Now, if they use some kind of tickets or wristbands, this whole thing should move pretty smoothly. I could be out of there by 6:30!

Thanks for the link ColsTiger
I'm a current Cingular/AT&T customer and not up for renewal. It pretty much answers all my questions.

Should be pretty painless if you're close enough to the front of the line to get one on iDay.

Absolutely. Someone is the primary account holder on your account. That person must use their SS# during the activation process and choose the iPHone data plan ($20/month) and your contract for your number will automatically be extended two years.

Pretty sweet huh?

Ya it is thanks for all your help.

Anytime! I'm just glad we finally know all those stupid At&t employees were talkin outta their butts when they were telling people things like "existing customers won't be able to buy the iPhone, and you can't get one unless you're eligible for an upgrade." I bet they all feel pretty stupid today. All of you guys that were told this can march in their local At&t/ Cingular stores and smile at those losers when you buy your new iPhones.

Now I just have to figure how early to get in line. Not sure how much demand there will be here in Ft Walton Beach, Fl

Is it the entire ss or just the last 4? Also What would happen if the BDAY didn't match that of the account holder? DO you think you would receive an error if you were already a customer?
