I think the plan that you are referring to here is different than what I am paying for. I signed a 2 year contract in 2003 with ATT Wireless. I am still on the same plan, with the same old ATT SIM card, and haven't signed another contract since. I buy my new phones overseas, primarily in Hong Kong where I can buy newer models than what is being offered with new contracts here in the US.
Before posting, I should have verified whether the same kind of add-on service is currently being offered. I just assumed so, because several of my friends seem to have the same thing.
