Make sure you guys are renewing not just signing a new contract. Word is they slipped in so very expensive data plan changes...

Not necessarily more expensive, it is just that the unlimited data plan is going away. If I recall correctly, the new data plans are 200Mb for $15/mo and 2G for $25/mo with $10/G overage. I believe that something like 98% of iPhone users don't go over 2G per month.

This upgrade site only lists the 3GS and 3G as upgrade options for me -- no mention of the iPhone 4 (and I am eligible).

I can only assume that if you are eligible for an upgrade to 3GS and/or 3G, that you could also upgrade to iphone 4 once available.

Just dial *639# on your current iphone. You will receive a text message back from AT&T with your upgrade eligibility

Thanks Ken. That was easy.
It says: As a valued customer, we can offer you an upgrade with a new 2-yr commitment and waive the $18 upgrade fee.

QUESTION : If I am upgrading from an iPhone to an iPhone 4, will I need to subscribe to one of the new data plans AT&T announced last week, or can I still keep the unlimited plan I had with my previous iPhone?
ANSWER : Siegel If you want to keep the $30 unlimited data plan, you can.

Right, but the new ones may be cheaper for you is what I was trying to get at. And by going away, I meant no one can sign up for it anymore.

Ok, just wanted to clarify that the unlimited plan is not going away completely for prior iphone users who are upgrading.
