$399/$499 for 8/16 GB. The $200 subsidy only applies once. If you lose the phone, you'll need to pay the unsubsidized cost.

Hope this helps...

That isn't the unsubsidized price, he'll have to pay the ineligible upgrade price which is 399/499. The unsubsidized price is 599/699.

I KNEW there was some grey area here.

Ok, so I would have to pay $499 to replace my 16GB iPhone thru AT&T (although I did purchase it thru the Apple Store) ?

Sorry, Glor, you are correct - right numbers, wrong terminology. In fact, I'm not even sure that it possible (yet) to purchase an iPhone at that unsubsidized price in the US.

Thomas, yes, $499 to replace your 16 GB phone. You are correct in that you should try to do that at an AT&T Store, rather than an Apple Store (they have enough difficulties with non-standard activations).
