Is there any advantage in buying from AT&T over going to an Apple Store or even Best Buy? The plans are prices are all the same aren't they? The difference seens to be who has inventory unless I'm missing something.

 

Go to Walmart. It is cheaper for the phone I think.

 

Its all the same. I think Walmart sells them for like $3 less

 

we should have IPhone & Wireless Service providers sub section

 

Thanks guys.

 

I ended up getting mine at a Best Buy. I walked in the Apple store at it was absolutely mobbed, as usual, and the line was out the door, so I split. No lines at Best Buy, had the phone online in about 30 minutes and just had to put up with a salesperson that was clueless and trying to sell me extended warranties. I think I'd go BB if I were you - AT&T stores are always slow, and Apple stores are always mobbed.

 

Fuck WalMart.

 

IFH WalMart

I think I'll try the Apple Store Monday during lunch.

I went to a BB today and I didn't see a 3GS on display and I avoided speaking with the salesperson, they all seemed busy with their heads up their asses.

 

Don't go to Apple; they would already benefit from a purchase. Help out another store (and salesman) with the purchase. Best Buy needs help, since CC disappeared.

 

That's at least as far as customer service is concerned. If you can find an Apple store that isn't packed like a zoo (go during an off-hour), you'll likely have a better experience.
