Ok, so I have a Motorola Q9(with AT&T) I have a 3G sim card unlimited data already on my plan and unlimited texting and everything. If I get an iphone will I have to change my plan and get a new sim card or what?

yes
 
The 3G data plan for the iPhone will be $30 + the cost for SMS. A data plan for the first generation iPhone will cost $20 and includes 200 SMS. The cost for minutes just depends on how many minutes you want.

I have two iPhones on a family talk plan and they run just under $140 a month, one is 3G and the other is the original iPhone.
 
so if I already have unlim txt n data it doesnt matter. i still have to get a hole new plan?(sry im an idiot)
 
me and my dad both got an iphone 3G 8GB on release and were expecting that we'd have to go on a seperate family plan from my sister and cousin. But idk if it was just due to the bricking issue it was just added on to our regular family plan. Then we just raised our minutes and then mine and my dad's lines got unlimited data and we already had unlimited txting so really we're now just paying the regular family plans plus data. Confusing im sure, hard to explain but yeah. All in all, you do get a sim card already in the phone, but your only plan difference might just be whatever you decide to change.
 
I went to an ATT store and they told me that I could get an iPhone and keep the same plan I have (Unlimted Data + 1500msgs $40). However, I haven't seen anyone here that has keep their old ATT data plan....

yeah i think you can do that...


i think those plans on the att web site are only for new att customers😱
 
so could i jus drop my unlim data that i already have n jus go iphone 30 n it b the same amount or do i need both?

you need to sign up for the iphone plan for 2 years

so just cancel your current data plan and start the iphone one and itll cost you the same amount of money that your spending now
