AT&T Begins Selling $99 (Refurbished) iPhone
While AT&T has intermittently offered refurbished iPhones in the past, the $99 price point is noteworthy given the recent rumors that Apple was to introduce a $99 model. Apple's current iPhone starts at $199 for the 8GB model and $299 for the 16GB. The refurbished models have been discounted $100 to $99 and $199, respectively.
Analysts believed that dropping the starting price of the iPhone to $99 could double or triple projected sales.

2nd!
If AT&T wants to sell more iPhones they could stand to drop the contract rates a fraction.
Can you buy thoses like the Full price 199 dollar one when ur still in contract with ATT??

Good question. Do I still need a contract?
A $100 price drop on the upfront cost is a drop in the bucket compared to the overall cost.

Their rates are cheaper then verizon .....
Don't try to compare AT&T with either Sprint or t-mobile in the US please. Coverage is not close to the same as t-mobile and I can't stand when people point to the sprint employee referral.
Yes Sprint is cheaper with the "referral" but first you've got to know about it ... which your average customer does not. Second a savy AT&T person can build a compatible plan using rate codes found across the internet.
I'm happily paying around 68/month (After taxes and discounts) for 650 anytime (only 450 roll over), 5000 N&W, 1500 text messages and unlimited data. Not sprint or t-mobile prices but pretty damn good in my books.
Can I sign up for the a calling plan, say the 450 minutes one, and then if I realize by checking up online I am coming close to going over my minutes, can I upgrade to the next 900 minute plan? WIll this extend my contract or anything?

No that will not extend your contract. I know if you downgrade you lose rollover minutes but I'm not sure if there are any penalties for upgrading.

With AT&T you can change monthly minutes at any point, its simply prorated for that month.
Also, to the question above, no, you cannot order one of these if you already have an iPhone, you must upgrade to this phone or make it your first with a 2 year contract.
