AT&T to Offer iPhone 4 on June 24

Best Pricing Immediately Available to Any iPhone Customer Eligible for Upgrade in 2010

Preordering for iPhone 4 and New $99 iPhone 3GS 8GB Available June 15 at AT&T Retail and Online Stores

DALLAS, June 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AT&T*, the U.S. smartphone leader, today announced it will offer iPhone 4, the thinnest smartphone ever with all-new design, FaceTime video calling, Apple's stunning new Retina display, 5 megapixel camera and HD video recording. iPhone 4 will be available for a suggested retail price of $199 for the 16GB model and $299 for the 32GB model, in company retail stores and online at www.att.com/iphone, plus business channels, beginning June 24. Customers can preorder starting June 15.

To let current iPhone customers quickly upgrade to iPhone 4, AT&T will make its best pricing immediately available to any iPhone customer who would be upgrade eligible for a discounted device by the end of 2010.

"This is another very exciting day for AT&T customers," said Ralph de la Vega, president and CEO, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. "By teaming with Apple to deliver an extraordinary device over the nation's fastest 3G network, we're enabling our customers to access their favorite social networks and favorite business applications."

"We know that people are eager to get iPhone 4, which is why we moved up the upgrade eligibility date for current iPhone customers by up to six months. This move, combined with the new wireless data plans we announced last week, will make it more affordable for more people to purchase an iPhone and enjoy the benefits of the mobile Internet."

In addition, a new iPhone 3GS 8GB for $99 will also be available on June 24.

Pricing

iPhone 4 and the new iPhone 3GS 8GB will be available at a variety of attractive price points for customers.

All new and current iPhone customers who are upgrade eligible, plus existing customers who choose to upgrade early must agree to a two-year term commitment, and select an eligible voice and data plan for iPhone. No commitment pricing does not require a two-year term commitment, but does require both voice and data service.

AT&T will also offer current iPhone 3GS 16GB and 32GB models at new, lowered price points of $149 (16GB) and $199 (32GB), with a two-year term commitment plus voice and data plans, while supplies last.

Eligibility

Existing iPhone customers eligible for an upgrade between today and the end of this year have been made immediately eligible for AT&T's best pricing for iPhone 4 with a new two-year term commitment. Consumers can verify upgrade eligibility at www.att.com/iphone today. Business customers can verify upgrade eligibility at AT&T's Premier site, https://www.wireless.att.com/business/.

Preordering

Consumers may preorder iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS 8GB at AT&T retail stores or online at www.att.com/iphone beginning June 15. Business customers can preorder through their AT&T sales representative or by visiting AT&T's Premier site. For greater convenience and faster delivery, preorders can be shipped directly to a customer's home or business for delivery as early as June 24. Customers can also have a preorder shipped to their local AT&T store for pick up on or after Friday, June 25.

AT&T stores will operate on a first-come, first-served basis, and will accommodate as many customers as possible.

Consumer Plans

AT&T customers can choose from several monthly plans that start as low as $54.99 per month for individual plans with voice and data. For families, customers can now add additional iPhones to their FamilyTalk account for as little as $24.99 per month, providing voice and data service. All iPhone plans include nationwide long distance and domestic roaming, Visual Voicemail, Rollover, and unlimited Mobile to Mobile calling.

Business Plans

Small business customers may qualify for AT&T BusinessTalk®, a shared minute plan specifically for small businesses. Companies can share up to 20,000 minutes per month among as many as 40 employees. In addition, business customers and employees of many businesses are eligible for discounted service rates. For more information, customers can contact an AT&T business account representative or visit www.att.com/iphoneforbusiness.

New Wireless Data Plans

iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS customers can choose one of AT&T's new data plans: DataPlus, which provides 200MB for just $15, and DataPro which provides 2GB for just $25. Existing AT&T smartphone customers upgrading to iPhone 4 or iPhone 3GS are not required to switch to a new plan, but can choose to do so. iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G customers can add tethering to AT&T DataPro for an additional $20 per month.

Each data plan includes unlimited Wi-Fi usage at more than 20,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots nationwide at no additional charge. AT&T will help customers monitor and manage wireless data usage by sending text messages and emails as customers begin to approach their usage limit, and by providing online tools, including an iPhone app that shows monthly usage information.

Currently, less than 98 percent of AT&T smartphone customers use more than 2 GB a month on average. More information on the new data plans can be found at www.att.com/dataplans.

Turn the Develop menu on, and then it's under User Agent. That's also where you can enable extensions.

I may be using the wrong version. Do you have a developer version, perhaps? I looked through the preferences and standard menus, but do not see that option.
 
i hope they have the upgrade thing here in holland as well or i have to sell my 3gs for 350 euro.

also is there a link to safari 5 for windows
 
So just to be clear(and apologies if it was stated for sure earlier, I did my best to search!) if I'm eligible for an upgrade as a 3G owner I can keep my unlimited data with the new phone?

I love that you can just use the bumpers. My pants won't know what to do!

Edit:

Press release makes me think no?

No, it's under Preferences --> Advanced tab.

I meant it feels cheap and little effort in terms of software, when compared to the iPhone 4. Hardware is key in that but i'm mainly talking about software. Hopefully this changes when (if?) iOS4 hits iPad.
Click to expand...
I think iOS4 for the iPad will be a big step up. I anxiously await what they will show off with that. Perhaps at the new iPod reveal? If we get new iTunes, iPods, and iPad OS 4 in one show, that will be so sweet. (And free mobile me)

now where are the extensions?
Click to expand...

Safari Extensions Gallery.
When you’re ready to share your Safari Extensions, you can submit them to the Safari Extensions Gallery, which will open later this summer. The Safari Extensions Gallery will give users an easy place to find your extensions and download them from your website.

There
 
The one thing you guys seem to forget is the the iphone is the most eco friendly of the high end smartphones. are the other smartphones made out of recyclable, and non toxic materials? by buying an iphone, you get that extra piece of mind that your phone will have less of an impact on your everyday environment.
 
A full discount on a standard handset or iPhone upgrade is not available at this time but you may qualify on 11/20/2010. We can offer you a discounted iPhone upgrade at a higher price with a 2-yr commitment and an $18 upgrade fee. Please visit a participating iPhone sales location for pricing on this offer.

WTF

might have to wait till 19'th that's when i bought it.
 
Why is one of Chrome's best features (bookmark synching) only available to those with a Mobile.Me account ?

What a load of shit.
 
Updating the "Rumors/expected things to be announce" section of the OP. Should have it fixed up by later tonight. Gotta love WWDC :D
 
Downloading Safari 5 now...

One thing from the conference I'm excited about that no one else seems to have paid much attention to was this:
engadget liveblog said:
11:13 Jacqui Cheng: better data protection, device management, wireless app distribution, multiple exchange support, SSL VPN support, Exchange Server 2010
Click to expand...
The VPN is a big deal for me because my university's wireless network currently uses a VPN, so I can't get on it with my iPod Touch. Once iOS4 comes out, though, I'll be able to use it. And thank goodness iOS4 is free for iTouches this time around...
 
i dont get whats so great about face time.

isnt it just like skype just built in iphone 4 and requires you to have two iphone 4s ?

OK, reader is pretty cool.

go here:

http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/5828/true_evolution_a_peter_molyneux_.php

then click on reader.

note that the reader display shows all 4 pages of the interview from the webpage in one scrollable view.

niiiice.


so, basically, it’s like mini instapaper view built into the browser.

Oh man that is nice:

Why is there a giant Bing ad at the bottom of the Safari page?

http://www.apple.com/safari/whats-new.html#performance

what the hell is going on?
Click to expand...


dogs and cats, living together.


ok, but seriously, the awesome bar upgrade is overdue and welcome.

the reader function is new to me (never saw it in another browser but I’m waiting for the opera folks to come in here :) and I already know I’ll use it quite a bit.

the old fashioned progress bar is also good to see. and adds consistency with the ipad and iPhone versions of safari.

and, as a bonus for me, it didn’t break glims support. so I still have “search as you type” support and automatic session saving after a crash or quit.

huzzah.
 
Deadly Cyclone said:
Few more questions, since GAF is awesome in helping with my first AT&T and Apple phone. When pre-orders open, since I don't have a previous AT&T plan, can I still pre-order and fill in my plan on Apple's site? Or do I have to go about it another way?

Much appreciated.

Quote for new page.

Also, about Safari 5, Safari has always not shown the Xbox forums correctly when trying to post (wont show HTML fonts bar) is there any way now to display this?

I use the Chrome Beta on Mac with bookmark syncing all the time. It syncs to my google account. Not sure what you're talking about exactly?

By the way did I miss something or are notifications still a mess under the iPhone OS?
 
So, if you are not eligible for the upgrade what are the costs you have to pay? Do you need to buy the phone for the subsidized price + the $18 fee?

What's the difference if you are eligible? Don't have to pay for the phone?
 
Do you need to pay to make Safari extensions? I'm just wondering if it's like Chrome or an App store type thing

The link to the 'Safari Developer Program' doesn't work.
 
Safari 5 seems to run gifs at full speed!
Reader is a mighty nice way to view articles, but I get the feeling I'm always going to forget it's there.

I need a couple of essential extensions and I'll be willing to switch back from Chrome!

gotta test this out on some gif threads now.
 
lol @ att saying the upgrade process was moved forward to help consumers. Not to catch them for another 2 years right before it goes to verizon

No.

Every Safari extension is signed with an Apple-provided digital certificate — free with the Safari Developer Program. The certificate protects the extensions you develop from tampering and ensures that updates come only from you. Safari Extensions also include built-in defenses like sandboxing, which safeguards your extensions from being used to access information on a user’s system.

alright so ive been at work all day so for the love of god forgive me if this question has been asked, but has there been any indication that there will be fring/skype video chat that will allow iphone to pc?
 
well, bigass gifs of around 3 MB no longer take forever to load before starting to animate.

but they still run slower than firefox.


the delay before animating was the biggest problem with the old version. I’m ok with this upgrade.

(NPD and E3 conference gifs will still require me to load up firefox for the full experience)

So if I don't have AT&T now do I still pre-order through Apple's site? Do you choose a plan there?

How about you wait until the 15th and stop asking questions no one really knows the answers to yet?
 
Safari 5 is available. When you launch it you have to go to Developer menu and ENABLE it first apparently.

The browser is inside Preferences as is a switch to turn them on for normal people. Also, there's nothing available. But with Developer menu enabled you can make your own. If you know how. I need documentation for this! Where is Safari Extension Documentation?
