According to my text status check, "As a valued customer, we can offer you an upgrade with a new 2 yr commitment and waive the $18 upgrade fee"

Assuming this means I get the $199 price, I have questions about ordering on Tuesday:

1. Is it best to order from AT&T or from Apple? I'd prefer to order from Apple I think, because I know it will get here on the 24th if I do.
2. When I order from Apple, will they have some means to detect that I'm eligible for the $199 price?
3. Since I'm upgrading am I required to order it from AT&T since they have records that I'm an existing customer and eligible?
4. Is it as easy as popping the sim out and putting it into the new phone?
 
Why not try the many threads answering your exact question and many that you haven't asked yet??

Quickly:

1. You can order from AT&T or Apple.
2. Apple can access your AT&T account. No problem.
3. Same as above. No problem.
4. The new phone comes with a new micro sim programmed for you.
 
Here's a dumb question..

I still have a year on my contract. But, if I order unsubsidized phone, does my contract still run thru next year?

yea. No changes to your contract will be made when you buy unsubsidized. I'm doing the same thing as you.
