Then after calming down and doing some browsing, it is logical that AT&T would want to recoup its subsidy from existing iPhone 3g users. However, their approach to me it illogical. I have been a long time AT&T customer and generally have no complaints. Customer service was good and I almost always had a signal. I would like to see AT&T off an "extended" contract instead. Meaning extend my contract and additional 2 years so that I can get the new hardware. They would be getting 2 additional years beyond my original contract. Seems fair, especially with Verizon poking its head in. At first I was extremely angry.

However, I have learned that with Mac, it is wise to skip a generation that way I dont end up with the high cost of upgrades. I have the 2nd generation iPhone now, yesterday pre-ordered my 's'. But I see your frustration and I concur that with this ridiculous use of corporate reaming the Mac community will have the last word. This is a great point.
