Page 2 of 2 AT&T also goes over its AT&T “Nation plans” which “bundle voice and unlimited data (for e-mail and Web browsing).- AT&T Nation Unlimited: Includes unlimited Anytime Minutes for US $129.99 a month. - AT&T Nation 1350: Includes 1350 Anytime Minutes and unlimited Night & Weekend Minutes for $109.99 a month. - AT&T Nation 900: Includes 900 Anytime Minutes and unlimited Night & Weekend Minutes for $89.99 a month. - AT&T Nation 450: Includes 450 Anytime Minutes and 5,000 Night & Weekend Minutes for $69.99 a month. Unlike Canadian plans from Rogers, AT&T throws in Caller ID, Call Waiting and Call Forwarding, and also includes the “Rollover” plan to take unused minutes from the previous month and add them to the next, unlimited “mobile to mobile” calling, visual voicemail and nationwide (US) long distance and roaming. Want a “FamilyTalk” plan from AT&T instead? You can get it “starting as low as US $129.99 a month for two iPhone 3G lines”, with “bundled voice and unlimited data”. Want up to three more iPhone “lines”? They’ll cost US $39.99 each. Want even more ways to spend money with AT&T? Hey, they’re at the ready to take your credit card numbers down: get “unlimited text messaging” for $20 per month or $30 per month for FamilyTalk plans up to five lines. If the budget doesn’t stretch that far, or you simply don’t do that much text messaging, you can opt for a $15 per month plan that gives you 1500 text messages, or the basic $5 per month plan which gives you 200 text messages. Unlimited text messaging can be added for an additional $20 ($30 for FamilyTalk plans of up to five lines); $15 (1,500 messages), or $5 (200 messages). AT&T is also offering “Business plans” and advises will be pre-loaded on iPhone 3Gs and can be download free for current iPhone users, to take advantage of all the wonderful new programs to soon arrive on the iPhone App Store. So, as we inch ever closer to July 11, more and more pricing details are leaking out, while no-contract iPhone 3G pricing reveals it’s the same as the original 2G iPhone (which was meant to go on a two-year contract) - $599 for the 8GB model! And $699 for the 16GB. Now we know!
