I'm sure there will be something similar here. I'm eligible for an upgrade in Feb but will hold off until the iPhone is available.
Cingular has stated that NO discounts will apply to this phone. Premier business customers will NOT be eligible for their usual discount. They can thank Apple for that.
To me that is already Apples first mistake. I know they love to be in control on pricing when it comes to their MP3 players, but they REALLY need to wake up and smell the cellphone market. It's clear they have no experience here.
