I just contacted the Apple store in NY area and they confirmed that AT&T NEXT customers must buy their new iphone 6 from AT&T only. The apple pre-order website says that AT&T customers in NY (I found out it also includes Wyoming for some strange reason as well) may not sign up for AT&T Next online. However, there was no mention if this would not be allowed if I go to an apple store instead.

The Apple store told me, after researching for a couple of minutes, that neither online or at store purchases can be done with AT&T Next. I wanted to warn everyone so they are not highly disappointed after waiting on a long line (if they even happen to have the phone) that they can't buy it!

So off I go to AT&T where there will probably be less supply:(
