Does anyone know if the five dollar, 200 text msg package has been discontinued? TIA

Yes, both the 200 message package for $5 and the 1500 message package for $15 were discontinued. AT&T now offers 1000 messages for $10, and unlimited for $20. If you already have the $5 package you're grandfathered for as long as you wanna keep it.

sorry about that. the rep who switched you should have informed you that you couldn't go back, ever. try talking to someone at customer care and explain that you were not informed that you couldn't go back. whenever reps take you off of a grandfathered feature, they're supposed to read a disclosure basically stating that if you ever want to go back to the grandfathered feature you had, you can't. if it was at a store, go back to that store and talk to the manager. if it was over the phone, call 611 and talk to a supervisor.

yeah the white will only be the 4, they already quit making the 3GS months ago in white in anticipation for the white 4. if you get the 3GS you can always get a white case, and you can get a refurb 3GS for $19 right now online or over the phone. just do your research on the phones, and figure out what phone will do everything you want it to do for 2 years assuming you're signing a contract

Thanks love... leaning towards the White 4, for some reason I want the front facing camera.. but like you said, I could get a white otter defender. I heard not to buy an iPhone without one...How long do you think the $49 3gs will be around?

i dunno, at least til this summer. apple has never really offered more than 2 types of iphone at once so one can only speculate. assuming they release a new phone this summer, they will probably eventually stop making the 3GS. and i wouldn't get an iPhone without a case cause they're super expensive to replace if you don't have insurance.

The white iPhone 4 had been on the equipment grid as pending release, but was removed some months ago. Not sure what that indicates, but do not see it in the near future.
