Ok, so Christmas was good to me, and I'm getting an iPhone. I'm not sure whether or not I can buy from ATT or Apple. Currently, my brother has an iPhone plan, and I'm going to jump on to it. So, what do I do? Do I activate it through iTunes as an existing account? Get a hold of his account information?

Thanks!
 
I would piggyback your brother's...

account, after you buy the iPhone from an Apple Store, go to the iTunes sight and set everything up with your brother's info. That's what my son did and it's worked out rather well for us. Not sure if you "text message" more than 200 msgs, but you should get the "unlimited family text msg plan" for $29.99 a month. My son does a ton of text messaging, and now, so do I! :cool:
