Aloha everyone,
I was talking with my wife tonight and showed her the picture of the alleged 2G iPhone. She then asked me if she could use my iPhone, assuming I get the new one, without having to pay the data plan. In other words, she really isn't too interested in using the data features - only the iPod and phone features - and would like to have the $20 monthly data charge only apply to my new phone.
My response is that as long as we have x iPhones, we'll have x accompanying monthly data charges. Is my understanding correct? If you stay with AT&T (and rollover minutes more than make up for any AT&T shortcomings), is there any way to avoid using the data plan, with the exception of actual phone calls.
Aside from that, or just getting her an iPod touch, do you think Apple will have some sort of exchange program? It would be nice if they would discount the cost of a 2G iPhone by, say, $50. What are you going to do with your 1G iPhone after you buy your 2G iPhone?
