So, I will not be able to purchase the iPhone 5 because i bought the iPhone 4S on launch date, and apparently AT&T changed their policies. No problem...that is their business decision.

Typically, I will purchase the new iPhone and pass my old one to my girlfriend. This led me to an idea. Has anyone tried this for past iPhone launches?

1) Purchase an iPhone 5 on her account (which qualifies for full discounted pricing)

2) Switch sim cards when the phone arrives and have the new iPhone 5 on my account and the old iPhone 4S on her account

3) Another consideration is that I the unlimited data plan, I wonder if this will mess this up for some reason?

Has anyone tried this before? Any thoughts would be much appreciated...
