It is coming from Apple not AT&T
If you are a new customer and want to sign up for a family plan at an APPLE store then you must buy a second iPhone 3G...
I am pretty sure APPLE stores won't have anything other than iPhone 3G's to sell to new AT&T customers...

Despite some mixed signals at their retail meeting last night, Apple has now updated their retail website at http://www.apple.com/retail, indicating that the iPhone 3G will be launched at 8 a.m. at Apple Retail stores on July 11th.
AT&T had previously announced an 8 a.m. launch time for the iPhone 3G launch, but we had not had official word from Apple. 8 a.m. is earlier than either of the retail shops typically open.

just give us the damn firmware already..god...
::sigh:: this is great and all, but still waiting to see if it even matters to those of us porting over from another carrier. i have t-mobile (contract just ended last month) and i have yet to see a definite statement that the apple store employees will have the ability/know how to port over new customers to ATT.
Thanks to everyone who clarified the statement regarding having 2 iPhones in NEW family talk plans only.
Now here is my next question. My family plan is in my dad's name. Am I allowed to upgrade my phone without him being present? Or can I just give them his last 4 digits of his social security # and do what I need to do?

It seems to me that most of the ATT Workers are far less knowledgeable than Apple Employees.
But what's even more potentially troubling is that we'll know almost instantly if the screen quality has been compromised even in the slightest way to comply with Apple's new round of cost-cutting measures.
What happens when my iPhone's account is in my dads name? I am an authorized user to the account. Would my dad have to be present still to upgrade and activate the iPhone? From the article I gather as I am already an AT&T customer I only need my ID to buy and activate the iPhone?
Awwww this is sooo cute. Just look at all the responses from all the first-time iphone wannabe owners -- they can hardly contain themselves!!
I am so relieved to know that there aren't ANY current iPhone owners jumping on the bandwagon because as we all know this is much ado about nothing -- oh yeah except for the addition of GPS which is linked to a ridiculously outdated ( and non-updated) Google Maps application...and oh yeah except for the addition of a scientific calculator which is, well, just plain laughable.
What else is there? I mean really, what else is there that COULD HAVE BEEN but what has instead, yet again, been left out?!!!
I can almost guarantee current owners will be disappointed in the "feel" of this so-called new version. But what's even more potentially troubling is that we'll know almost instantly if the screen quality has been compromised even in the slightest way to comply with Apple's new round of cost-cutting measures.
They'll be able to fool the masses...all of the time...but they won't be able fool us hardcore boys...NONE OF THE TIME!!
I'm sticking with my version1 iPhone for another 2 months than will buy a lightly used 3G for $99 on ebay or something.
I have a question. What makes you a business client? I get a discount on my monthly bill from AT&T because of where I work. I do have a FAN number associated with my account. I don't consider myself a business client, because where I work has thousands of employs. We have no apple stores in the state that I live in, so this question really would not matter. Except I will be in Las Vegas on friday and thought I would try to pick one up in the apple store. Thanks![]()
