To the best of my knowledge, Answer Tones are done by the carrier, so they are not hardware specific.

Answer Tones? Like Verizon's ring back? If so AT&T does not have it and I'm glad they don't that stupid thing annoys me I hate having to listen to a song against my will.
AT&T absolutely DOES have Answer Tones. I've had them on my AT&T Blackjack for the past 9 months. As if they'll work on an iPhone, that I'm not certain, as I haven't made the jump yet.
But your post is stating completely inaccurate info with far too much confidence.
Since they are offered by AT&T, I don't believe answer tones are hardware specific.. so they "should" work with the iPhone as long as it's on AT&T's network and not unlocked on a different carrier..
Yes, AT&T does have these and they WILL work with the iPhone. As TEG said they are a "carrier side" thing, and are therefore not hardware dependent.
I hadn't heard anything on it and have been on the AT&T site a lot the past month and saw nothing on it. The only carrier I knew of that had it was Verizon. Pardon me for being wrong no need to be a jerk about it a simple "Actually AT&T does have it blah blah blah" would have worked. I still stand by my statement of it being really annoying.

I'm very sorry that I hurt your feelings. Usually when someone states something with such gusto as per your original post, they're able to deal with someone correcting them when they're wrong.
You'll be ok...
