iPhone details from AT&T internal document

 Images 2007 03 ThinkingaboutiphoneNo we don’t know the exact service plans AT&T will offer with the iPhone, and we certainly don’t know what features Apple will add before it’s officially released in June, but we do have some other, less specific, news. Somehow or another Engadget got its hands on an internal AT&T FAQ document intended for its employees. The actual document is 3 pages long and contains some redundant information, so I’ve summarized the highlights for you here:

  • “An existing customer can purchase the iPhone for the same price as a new customer. However, no subsidies are being offered on the phone at this time.”
  • Customers will be allowed to wait past when their contract expires to upgrade to the iPhone.
  • Cingular (AT&T) will provide traditional service/billing support but Apple will provide technical support for iTunes and iPod functionality.
  • There will be access to Cingular’s MyAccount from the iPhone, allowing the complete management of service.
  • The prices of $499 (4GB) and $599 (8GB) have been confirmed by Cingular.
  • The iPhone cannot be pre-ordered.
  • Many other details (rate plans included) will be released “closer to launch.”
