An iPhone costs 600. AT&T sells them for 200. That's a 400 dollar loss to AT&T. AT&T pays Apple full retail price for the phones. That would be 600/700 dollars. That's like saying they're paying you 400 dollars to sign a contract. Now over the 2 year period there are fees in your AT&T plan so that they recover this 400 dollars a little bit month-by-month, it's included in your monthly service. By the time your contract expires, you have a 2 year old phone that you JUST finished paying for - only you don't know it. This helps add to your expensive AT&T contract.

This is why the people who still had a contract but wanted to get the 3GS were being charged full price for the phone. AT&T had not yet recouped their loss from the first phone they sold them. Why would they go out and say, "oh well here's another one for 200, please take our 400 dollars". For once in their existance AT&T actually did people a favor by allowing them to upgrade early. They had no need to do so, they had signed contracts. It was the people who would not fulfill them.

Face it, your phone is expensive]]>Sep 9th 2009 10:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/:)

What the hell are you talking about? $600? First, we've had video recording since day one, either you're an idiot, a troll, or you mean BY APPLE. Are you high? By "true" background processing, I take it to mean BY APPLE, as we've had it for years....I've spoken to the reps selling android phones and even they agree it's not ready yet...getting there, but it's not there yet...so congrats on being a little early. Notification system? Again what are you babbling about? Android didn't or doesn't support multitasking either last I read so again, what exactly is your point because you sound like someone who couldn't afford an iphone and are just whining. By the way, the Pre, supporting multitasking, slows down, jumps and stutters as of the last update before this week. Good luck.]]>Sep 9th 2009 1:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/Sep 9th 2009 1:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/

3.1 was designed to have backward compatibility with older platforms. As with 3.0, version 3.1 has File Manager and Program Manager, but unlike all previous versions, 3.1 and later support 32-bit disk access, cannot run in real mode, and include Minesweeper instead of Reversi (though Reversi is included in some copies).]]>Sep 9th 2009 2:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/
be careful with memory leaks in the Chooser because it won't get fixed until 3.2

don't expect the multitasking of multi-finder yet as that won't come out until 5.0

ignore the previous comment as that is from the windows world and obviously not knowledgeable of the real 3.1]]>Sep 9th 2009 3:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/Sep 9th 2009 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/Sep 9th 2009 1:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/ * Updated modem firmware to 5.10.01

"Overall faster" is what's most interesting to me. I remember my original iPhone when it was 1.0 and it was frickin snappy, the keypad never paused or lagged. Now we're at 3.1 and it's only lagged more and more with each release. If Exchange support weren't so important to me, I'd go back to 1.0, but 2.0 with Exchange support was the laggiest version so far, and everything after it only slightly less laggy. If they had just managed to stick with the original peppiness of 1.0, they wouldn't need an overheating CPU and GPU in the 3GS just to keep up with crappy OS code. Why is the keyboard not taking highest level priority when I type on it? Why can Safari page loads lag my input device? I thought that's why Macs were so great, because the software always gave priority to user input and always reacted, even if it was just with a churning pointer, at least the icon would visibly "depress" so I know the computer processed my click.]]>Sep 9th 2009 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/09/iphone-os-3-1-is-offical-available-today/
