I'm curious: has anyone had any success negotiating the monthly price on a new account? I've starting to be won over by the "device" side of the iPhone equation... but I just can't stomach paying about $20-30 more each month for the same minutes/data/sms that I could get on Sprint (with whom I've actually been a happy customer for over 8 years). I know, I know: some would say that's part of having a "better" phone -- but its tempting to save the monthly money and stick with a Touch Pro or Treo Pro (I'm very comfortable/happy with WinMo) on Sprint.
...but if I could somehow talk a CSR into getting my monthly down to a similar rate, I would switch in a minute.
I ask, because I've had a lot of success talking Sprint rep's into discounts over time, and I've been able to do the same with cable companies... retail stores... but I've never dealt with ATT before, so don't know if the store sales people even have the power (or inclination) to make a deal. Anyone with experience?
