What do you think the iPhone 4 will be discounted to?

Q. When the iPhone 5 arrives, what do you think the iPhone 4 will be discounted to initially?
My phone broke and I'm holding out for a new one to see what the iPhone 5 does to the market.

A. I think the iPhone 4 will first be discounted to maybe around $150.

An iphone 4 can do anything the ipod touch can right?
Q. For instance if I want to use free wifi internet on an iphone, it would be free right? An iphone 4 or any iphone is just an ipod with a phone. So if I add a line to at&t and get a two year contract and get an iphone 4 with a discount I could simply use the iphone 4 as a ipod touch?

A. Yup, iPhone 4 is like an iPod Touch with phone features. If you connect to a free Wi-Fi network, you get free internet and yes, you can use an iPhone 4 as an iPod Touch under the contract.

How do you upgrade to an iphone 4 online with a family plan?
Q. I want to buy the iphone 4 online because i want the refurb discount but I have no idea how I would upgrade on a family plan with online options. I want my phone to NOT be the main line but the "add a line for 9.99" deal that my phone is on now. any ideas how i would do that with having my moms phone still the main line on the family plan?

A. No, the refurbished iPhone 4 cannot be upgraded to. Here's the conversation with the AT&T sales rep. that proved that:

âºThank you for your patience! An AT&T sales representative will be with you shortly.
âºYou are now chatting with Paul N., an AT&T sales representative.

Specialist.: Welcome to AT&T Online Sales Support. Can I assist you in placing an order today?
Me: Hi, I'm going ahead and answering someone's question by asking you this. The person I am helping would like to get an iPhone 4 (Refurbished). When that person purchases the iPhone 4 online, would that person go to their MyAccount page and do the rest?
Me: That person on a family plan.
Specialist.: Okay so they are looking to add a line to their existing account right?
Me: Well, no. They want to upgrade their phone on their existing line.
Specialist.: Oh okay. Unfortunately that phone is not eligible to be upgraded to.
Me: So they have to start a new line.
Specialist.: That phone is only eligible to be purchased with a new plan or by adding a line.
Me: So the only thing they can do is to start a new line starting at $9.99 on the said family plan and add the data feature and 2 year contract? No can do on an upgrade?
Specialist.: That is correct.
Me: Alright. Thanks, I'll relay the information to them. Thanks.
