iPhone Not Available Online without AT&T Contract
So how soon before someone sues?
I'm not rich enough to be ripped off.
I swear we need more people on Phone Scoop who are actual consumers rather than clonies of wireless companies terms & condition and anti-consumer policies.
I however think a company has the right to sell something on whatever terms they please.
Assuming that it was legal to sell your body parts, let's say Apple/ATT's terms of purchasing the iPhone was your right leg, would you still purchase it? Just because YOU consider the terms outrageous, has there been any crime committed?
If you're outraged, don't buy the phone. Also organize other people to not buy the phone. ATT will think twice about the policy then.
I feel this way about any product(assuming there's no fraud involved).
There are things in the industry we all wish were different. But before people call something anti-consumer remember that the carriers and their manufacturing partners risk a ton of their cash so that you can have a service that works and a product to work on the service.

no they're not entitled to sell it anyway they want.
Why is that? If you were selling something, do you think anyone has the right to tell you how to sell it?

it's gotten to the point where they keep dangling that antenna problem plagued device in people's faces and pulling it away to get a few laughs. i'm tired of it and others are too. hence why we have alternative options such as android/webOS/windows mobile
You just answered your own question. if you dont like it, then dont buy it. I dont like the iPhone, so guess what???!?!
Holy crap, I didnt buy it!
Consumers have this thing called money. Producers want your money. Producers have figured out that they have to make consumers happy in order to get the consumers' money. Consumers generally have figured out that they don't have to give their money to people who don't make them happy.
Consumers have seemed to have forgotten this simple rule.
