Went to AT&T store and attempted to pre-order (2) 32GB Black phones. Ran into (2) issues:
1) Shipping will be in 2 or 3 weeks. Do not understand why I can not pick it up on the 14. Asked if I wait until 14, salesman stated that there is a good chance I will get what I want, they will have plenty of phones.
2) Can not get the new iPhone Apple Care on pre-orders. Apple rules indicate that you must purchase it at time of purchasing the phone, which is date you accept it and activate it, whenever that is. That will not be date of your purchase receipt, which is apple rules. I double checked it through Apple web site and it specifically states must be purchased at time you purchase phone. I can purchase AT&T plan at 9.99 a month. NO WAY.
Other issue is that I have unlimited data plan, which I can keep. But it appears it will not be at my current monthly billing rate. Still waiting on how much it will cost me.
AT&T finally got back to me. He stated "DO NOT" order from their web site if you have unlimited data plan. So if you want to keep unlimited data plan and get the NEW Apple Care replacement plan, go to the brick and mortar store on the 14 or after.
