AT&T iPhone Q&A for Employees

Nothing new there, but good to know it's still on target for June.

you can access itunes?

you can access itunes?

you administer and sync the iphone thru itunes the same way you administer and sync an ipod thru itunes.

I hate when I already know "breaking news."

Access to the iTunes site? The iTunes site is the iTunes store. It's not as if you'd have access just to see what you can't buy... right?

Nevermind, I missread it. You can access your cingular bill info through iTunes running on your computer. That sounds like a good thing though. Yay.

just misread it, thanks.

• Access to Cingular's MyAccount via the device and the iTunes site.

that doesn't mean you can pay your bill through itunes? does it?

Some people may disagree, but no subsides is fantastic news. I am sure cingular wanted to subsidize the hell out of the phone in order to push more units up front and therefore reduce the bargaining power of Apple on affordable and fair Voice and Data plans.Furthermore this is the real cost of the hardware + Apple's 20-30% margins. This is amazing! So much technology in $500 and $600 .5" package. Not $1k+ that many people originally thought. Now Apple can make price cuts whenever they want without consulting with Cingular. Now that Apple has put a stake in the ground about retail pricing they can demand that cingular make a fair and streamlined Voice+Data system.

Also being able to manage my cingular account through iTunes is great news, this means Apple will have an impact on the steps and we should see a MUCH improved system to sign up for service for a phone purchased in an Apple Store on through Apple.com.

Ah, I made a post about this and was beaten by 2 minutes. bummer.

i guess its good to know that nothing's really changed so far.
and as we get closer to launch i'm guessing we'll be hearing more and more details from things like this. since they're going to need/want the employees up to speed on the device once its released.
