Non-iPhone unlimited Edge plan?
I'm stuck at a place without Wifi for thanksgiving and I'm seriously considering upgrading to Edge. However, I have a cheap plan through At&t so the official iPhone plan soul take me up like $30/month locked in for 6 freaking months. Is it possible to get an unlimited Edge plan that will not lock me in and cost less?
Thanks,
Max

not with att i dont think. im pretty sure thier data network for the iphone is just for the iphone. T-Mobile is another story though.

Sorry, I phrased it a little confusing-like. I HAVE an iPhone, and I want an unlimited data plan for it. However I would like to get just data without having to upgrade to the official iPhone plan and be locked in for 6 months, if it's possible. Is it?
I talked to an AT&T rep. They said I could go to a $20/month no contract plan just for Edge. I didn't tell them that it was for the iPhone, though. If I upgraded my number to the generic unlimited Edge plan and used it on my unlocked iPhone, would it cause me any extra charges?Last edited by MaxRabbit; 11-27-2008 at 03:55 PM.

CAll in and give them an old IMEI number and ge the $20 unlimited old data plan. It works on the iphone, you even get 3G.

Okay, so since my phone is still listed as my old Sony Ericson, if I have them set me up with unlimited data for that phone I can use it on my iPhone without a problem?

Until they do a network sweep and force you to add the EDGE/3G... which iPhone do you have?
