So I own a 3gs now and I finally decided to preorder the 4S. I am grandfathered in with the unlimited data plan and I am available for the upgrade on AT&T. I just went to pre-order on their site and I got to the page where it asked me to set up my messaging plan and what not. I put unlimited data since that's what I have now and I went to checkout and it said it was added and deleted or something like that so it confused me. Did anyone else who has unlimited data have trouble upgrading? I just want to make sure it's safe to upgrade and keep the plan I'm on right now. Any answers would be really appreciated!
Got a tip for us?

If it's indicating you have unlimited data, then you should be fine. Others have mentioned that AT&T changed the way the unlimited data reads to potentially be device-specific so the new unlimited data says "unlimited for iPhone 4S" or something that that effect.
You ought to be safe. I never pre-ordered one either and the AT&T website and rep confirmed my unlimited status.
I was confused about the way AT&T asked you to select which messaging plan you wanted. I currently have the 200 messages for $5, which on their site wasn't an option. I decided to do my pre-order through Apple's site and I didn't even have to select which messaging plan I wanted as it was already selected for me. All I had to do was choose my data plan (unlimited) and that was it. Much less confusing, for me anyway....
