Cheaper sales tax @ Apple Store compared to AT&T store?

Yes, they all charge the same.

My 16GB has $17.66 tax on it, so no, I am only paying tax on the $199 (in NY). However my Apple confirmation email has an asterisk next to the estimated tax and says this:

"*In CA and RI sales tax is collected on the unbundled price of the iPhone."

Does unbundled = full price?

Yes it does. I paid $68 in tax on my $299 32GB iPhone 4S last October here in CA, as sales tax was applied to the unsubsidized/unbundled $749 price.

Oof and I thought NY sales tax was bad!

I paid ~$39 for my Sprint order from Sprint.com and I'm from NY too (Long Island). I don't know what it's based off. It's not the retail price. At the time of the order it said estimated tax is $39, and I thought it would eventually be adjusted to the ~$18 it's supposed to be, but I got a call from my bank asking if I authorized the charge and they said the amount was $239. What the hell am I paying $21 more for?
