Apple and AT&T have both confirmed that US customers who cannot, or simply do not want to sign into a two-year contract, will be allowed to purchase the new iPhone 3G, for $599 USD and $699 USD for the 8GB and 16GB models respectively.
There is of course, a hitch to the new announcement. AT&T says to be able to buy the phone at all, consumers must sign up for some type of AT&T wireless subscription.
There was no word on when this new type of agreement would become available.
