Data Only iPhone 3G

[rashad1]

I want it, is it possible?

[cpjr]

Nope. Unless you just use WIFI.

[StealthBravo]

you mean data and no talk? I don't think so. You can get the bottom of the barrel voice plan

It is possible. Companies purchase iPhones for data only use. It would cost $50 a month I believe. They are trying to aim iPhone for corporate use. The companies IT dept. can restrict phone access and only data. It's the same concept for data only blackberries, pdas.

$50 dollars a month?!?!? That's NUTS!!!! I thought it would be like 35 dollars a month at most.

[gQstatus05]

yeah it's $5 dollars above data price.

So if it was personal use instead of paying $30 unl data you'd pay $35

I only said $50 b/c companies who purchase it most likely will use exchange email system.

That costs $45 a month but for data only it would be $50. YOu got the right idea. I don't know if they'd do it for a regular consumer, call and find out.

off topic, but does anyone know where to get cheap iphones (unopened and w/o a contract)?

[gQstatus05]

lol.. way off topic. Ebay dude and they won't be cheap.

[rashad1]

Thanks for the help guys, I decided to just keep my voice plan and use my iPhone as my main phone.

Those words do not belong in the same sentence :P

Well I just got a ATT referb and at this time I am on T-Mo until my contract runs out.
I want to try to get my 3g iPhone up and running on ATT without paying 70.00 for the iPhone plan.
Can I go with a prepaid, $1.00 a day, or go plan, and add the unlimited data for 20.00?
I know that I can go with a $15.00 voice prepaid and add the 20.00 data for a 2g or none iPhone IMEI but I was told that once the system recognizes tat its a iPhone it will shut me down.
Is this correct?
Is there a work around?

Thanks

it will send you a text message that says "Our systems have detected that you are using an iPhone with the inapporiate plan, please call 18003310500 to correct this or legal action will be taken"

[n0m0n]

legal action, what legal action can they take???

Is this just a threat or can they take action?
If I add the unlimited data for 20.00 will I see additional charges?
Since I am tyring this on a GO r prepaid plan what can they do?

I only ask this because I am on T-Mo now and had a need for 3g speed.

Thanks
