AT&T will offer an iPhone insurance service, named MobileProtect, starting on June 6th, according to a Boy Genius Report.
The insurance plan, which will be run by Asurion, will carry a price tag of $13.99/month and will be available for purchase through Apple’s App Store. The charges will be billed to the credit card on file with Apple. The deductibles range from $99 for an 8GB 3G to $199 for a 32GB 3GS, which is pretty steep — but not quite as steep as $699 for a new 32 GB 3GS off-contract. You must enroll in the plan within 30-days of upgrading/purchasing a new iPhone.
AT&T says that “lack of iPhone insurance is a leading source of iPhone related customer complaints.”

I thought AT&T was the leading source of iPhone related customer complaints.

$199.00 for a 32GB 3GS?
You can get that from Apple any day, a replacement phone through Apple is $199.00 and don't have to wait, on a spot replacement!
SO TO AT&T - LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSE TO MAKE MONEY!
