In addition, AT&T today will begin shipping devices to customers who preordered online for arrival beginning tomorrow. iPhone 3G S will also be available tomorrow morning at all 211 U.S. Apple retail stores.
EARLY HOURS FOR PREORDER CUSTOMERS
Many customers have chosen to preorder iPhone 3G S in an AT&T store or online. AT&T Store Preorders: Customers who preordered in AT&T stores can return to the same store beginning tomorrow morning, with their receipt, to pick up their order.
AT&T has announced it will support auto-authentication for iPhone OS 3.0 users connecting to AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots. Auto-authentication allows iPhone users to seamlessly switch from AT&T’s 3G network to an AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spot without being prompted.
AT&T customers with qualifying iPhone data plans have unlimited access to the nation’s largest Wi-Fi network — more than 20,000 U.S. AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots. The new process eliminates the previous two-step authentication, making it easier and faster for iPhone customers to connect to AT&T Wi-Fi. Auto-connect is established once a customer connects their iPhone to an AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spot the first time.
AT&T has announced a change to the date when some iPhone customers are eligible for upgrade pricing to iPhone 3G S. The more a customer spends with AT&T, the quicker they become eligible for a price break on a new device. For example, iPhone customers who spend more than $99 a month per line with AT&T generally are eligible for an upgrade between 12 and 18 months into their contract.
AT&T is now offering early upgrade pricing only for the iPhone 3G S and iPhone 3G. Since many of AT&T iPhone 3G customers are early adopters and are weeks shy of being upgrade eligible due to iPhone 3G S launching 11 months after iPhone 3G, AT&T is extending the window of upgrade eligibility for a limited time.
Verizon and AT&T claim they did not collude to fix prices for text messaging, text message pricing have fallen for most customers and that the text messaging market is competitive. This is after Senator Herb Kohl stated that he's concerned that four of the largest cell phone companies have doubled their text messaging rates from 10 cents in 2006 to 20 cents in 2008. Verizon and AT&T have argued that the price increase only affects 1% of text messages sent because most consumers purchased volume plans that lowered their cost for sending text messages.
