Posted June 8, 2009 at 7:49pm by iClarified
Current iPhone users might find an extra $200 tagged onto the price of the iPhone 3G S when they try to upgrade.
According to an AppleInsider report customers must have stayed with AT&T for at least a year to quality for the advertised $199 (16GB) and $299 (32GB) price points.
Current users who bought their iPhone 3G shortly after launch last year will have to wait till their previous date of purchase to upgrade. Otherwise, they will have to pay the $200 premium. That makes the 16GB iPhone $399 and the 32GB iPhone $499.
Users can also pay a $400 premium to get the new phone with no-contract, no-commit pricing. That would make the 16GB iPhone $599 and the 32GB iPhone $699.
