AT&T Begins Offering iPhone 3G S For $9
Good morning everyone, late last night, AT&T updated an item on their online store, the iPhone 3G S. It seems as thought it dropped $40 in price from once second to another and that change is here to stay. AT&T is now offering the iPhone 3G S for just $9 with a 2-year contract.
$9? Yep.
If you don’t care about having the latest and greatest iPhone, iPhone 4, or the upcoming iPhone 4S/iPhone 5 or if you don’t care about dealing with AT&T, the here is your chance to score big!
The iPhone 3G S is an amazing phone, and iOS 5 comes full featured on it as well (it’s not watered down like previous major iOS releases on the iPhone and iPhone 3G) except the hardware dependent features such as “LED Flash for Alerts”.
You can bet Verizon is pretty pissed right now.

Unlocked iPhones Finally Sold In America!
Great news! Now that the contract is up with AT&T Apple can finally sell unlocked iPhones here in the US. The only 2 supported carriers in the US are AT&T and T-Mobile. T-Mobile does not use the same 3G frequency as AT&T so those looking to use an unlocked iPhone 4 on T-Mobile will be limited to edge speeds.
Now that you can get an unlocked iPhone in the US you can finally take your iPhone overseas to use on a different carrier. Pricing starts off at $649 for a 16GB iPhone 4 and this is a contract free iPhone. No word yet as to whether or not current AT&T customers can get their previously purchased iPhones unlocked. Hopefully you can call up AT&T and tell them your IMEI code and they will unlock it for free of for a small fee.

Well well well, what do we have here. Earlier today at the D9 conference, When asked why AT&T would not sell unlocked iPhones to those going out of the country, de la Vega responded by saying to buy the phone at full price and it would be unlocked. When the crowd and press corrected him, De la Vega said he would look into the issue.
Either AT&T CEO Ralph De La Vega was trying to save face or my iPhone 4 may be officially unlocked by Apple in the very near future. I purchased my iPhone 4 off contract from Best Buy about 3 weeks ago and it was still locked to AT&T (as I had known anyways), but that may soon change.
I hope Apple unlocks iPhones that were purchased at full price because it seems that even AT&T’s CEO is shocked that the iPhones are still locked.

Rumor: iPhone Carriers To Allow Unlimited iCloud Streaming?
Hey guys, now, this is in no way confirmed or even a shred of evidence to support this, but it is a thought I have had for the past few months, so bear with me.
I believe that Apple’s iCloud service will fail, unless, it has the full support of their carrier partners, especially Verizon & AT&T here in the U.S. As you may know, AT&T has moved to tiered data (for it’s iPhone data plans) and a very stingy 2GB data cap. Verizon is due to do the same thing “this summer”, so what does this mean for those iPhone & iPad users that rely on their 3G data carrier for data?
Well, unless Apple has struck deals with carriers, it will mean that they won’t be able to use iCloud.
This is not good. It’s not good because I see a lot more iPhone 4s than I do older iPhones, which means that they are on the newer (tiered) data plans. I see hundreds of iPhone 4s a day here (at least here in Iowa, not sure about elsewhere).
However, if Apple does what I think is the logical solution, then everyone should be happy.
Here’s what I believe will happen, Apple will introduce iCloud and price it at either $39 or keep it at that same $99 a year price. Then, Apple will say that they have partnered with AT&T, Verizon, O2, Optus, Telstra, T-Mobile, and Vodafone to offer unlimited iCloud streaming on their networks without touching their existing tiered data plans.
It makes sense.
Again, we will be covering WWDC 2011, live, as it happens on June 6th @ noon (central time).
