How are you purchasing the iPhone 5?

Off contract. Will use my upgrade. Will then sell my iPhone 4 to recoup funds.

Its still up in the air. It was going to be early upgrade or full price but now im thinking about adding a line because I like the idea of having an upgrade every year between the 2 lines and that alone is worth the $10 extra a month.

Do you have a family plan now?
 
Selling my old one on eBay, take the money and extend the contract with AT&T. By the way, does anybody know if Verizon 4G LTE network has the same "issue" that you can't talk and surf on the same time?

LTE allows for simultaneous talk and surf, though I do not know why you would use it

If on LTE, not an issue, if not on LTE, still an issue unless the iPhone 5 has SVDO tech. ( At least, that's the general consensus on these forums these days.)

Do you already have a family line? I dunno what the difference in between a single line and 2 line plan is its been awhile my bill doubled but my gf needed texting and data too which the 3rd line wouldn't need.

Nope right now I just have a single line 450 minutes with unlimited data and texting.. Would it only cost 10 dollars a month for me or more since I would switch to a family plan?

no your plan is 39.99 and the cheapest family plan is 59.99 so it would cost you close to $30 extra a month.
 
CrAkD said:
oh 59.99 includes 2 lines? I guess that makes sense. its not a family plan without atleast 2 people.

yup just checked.. so if I add a new line, starting a family plan to purchase the new phone, I would obviously have to add the data plan but I wonder if I am able to cancel it that same month
 
I think i ll get it at full price because with a contract prices are burning hot, so better cash and then i ll choose a cheap yearly contract !

yeah you can maybe buy a cheap $10 flip phone and attach that to the new line dropping the data plan.
 
Ordering mine from Verizon with one of my sisters upgrades...I love having a family plan we have upgrades all the time and no one in my family uses them they just use my old phones since they could care less and I keep them in near perfect condition.

32GB Black one for me.
 
Most probably getting one, on 4S right now, my UK Orange account isn't for an upgrade til August 2013 though so will buy unlocked from Apple.

iPhone 5 for fresh kidney.

How on earth do you have that much in recent, unexpired Reward Zone coupons?

Rewardzone Premier Silver and you get the option of banking all of your points so basically I've been hoarding my points until I wanted something such as the iPhone :)
