"upgrade eligible" is the keyword.. for gen1 iphone users, the prices, as per the att/iphone website, calculated on the basis of my contract specs was the same as advertised, i.e., 99/199/299

edit: chk price eligibility here- https://buyiphone.apple.com/

Thanks for the link. Sadly it's not working right now.

I guess if AT&T and "not being able to connect" weren't synonymous in my head already it's my own fault for being surprised.

Update: Finally got through and I take back all the bad things I said about AT&T. I got the $299 pricing for the 32Gb and I bought my 1gen iPhone on Sept. 5, 2007 (I know the exact date because it was the date they dropped the price and I ran out and picked one up that day)

Just verified this. I have an original 2G iPhone and was able to reserve the new 32GB 3GS for $299.
Thanks for that link.
