Details of what AT&T reps tell us on iPhone's contract, more of the same

Some new details have emerged concerning the AT&T contract for the iPhone. Our friends at iPhone News Blog did some calling around, and they were nice enough to share the highlights. The information ends up being more of the same.

None of the information found by them is particularly amazing or unexpected, and it seems to be what we've been hearing all along. Amazing, I know. What this does tell us, however, is that they are still telling us just about the same things.

- You must buy a data plan with the iPhone.
- Data plan package is $40. This includes Unlimited Internet surfing and 1500 text, SMS or photo messages.
- You may increase your text, SMS or photo messages for a higher price
- You may choose your voice plan among the various ones they have available currently.
- Most likely 2 year contract will be required.
- No info on pricing for current subscribers with AT&T / Cingular but you will have to be qualified for an upgrade to purchase one.
- They had no details as to how many they were going to get in stock.
- They will close at 4:30pm and reopen at 6pm to sell the iPhone
- No waiting list. First come, first served.

I'm beginning to wonder if employees are being intentionally left in the dark about certain details, particularly the ones we would find interesting in some way. That's just a guess on my part though. However, I do know that they said they enjoy a good laugh from time to time at the more outrageous claims...
