Go to the phone page, and at the top where is says "narrow your selection", there is a drop down on the far right to show "choose purchase types". Drop down to "renewed 2 year contract".
Right now it is $89.99 with activation waived (saves you $18). If you go new customer, then you get it free after rebate.
A Captivate is $199 without a contract? Last I looked it was $499...?
Edit: it is $499. http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-pho...sku=sku4760319
So, Rob, why are you calling it $199? Is it available somewhere else for $200? At $200, I'm in. At $500, not so much. I'm an existing customer with AT&T still under contract and I can re-up for a phone in ~April '11.
i guess it's available for Premier accounts (valid through my employer) - I saw a 199 w/o 2 yr contract & assumed it was available to everyone.
hmm.. i guess i better jump on it for 200... except i noticed someone above saying they had issues with Exchange Server?
currently my work email is pushed to my iPhone.. this is incredibly helpful & I'd hate to lose that.
BTW, the wife's best friend lives in Ft Collins & absolutely loves it. The pictures they have of their back yard last winter were really cool

Played with a Captivate at the ATT store today. Pretty unimpressed. Interface and overall operation was laggy and sluggish compared to my iPhone 4G, plus the screen was meh! as well.
Not impressed. Glad I didn't wait for this phone.
From a happy iPhone 4G owner.
plus they haven't figured out that the wife has her own iPhone withOUT a data plan.
I'm afraid if I make too many waves, they'll see that she needs a data plan, even though she'd never use it.
I'll try it out for a couple of days & maybe return it for the iPhone 4 because of the aforementioned Corporate Outlook issues.
If anyone has the Vibrant. i just rooted my Vibrant, got rid of most of the bloatware I don't use (Amazon mp3, Telenav, mobiTV, write and Go, slacker radio) and did the lagfix...wow...phone flies now...huge performance improvement...
How did you uninstall those programs?
I've rooted my Vibrant, but haven't found a way to uninstall those apps. yet.
The lagfix has helped my phone a bit.
What ... the ... fuck.
Really? The screen was MEH?
Yes. Really. The screen on the iPhone 4G is quite a bit better at least indoors under normal lighting.
As for the lagginess it possibly could be from having many things running but the iPhone does not do this no matter how many apps are "running".
Time since "rebooting"? Another reason to skip this phone. Shit is it running Android or Windows?
My phone don't need no stinkin reboot!![]()

Funny, because all the things you said, I don't experience on my Captivate. But I did experience them on my JB 3Gs that backgrounds things just like an Android device does. No matter what you want to think, the iPhone still doesn't do proper multitasking. Doesn't matter, because my coworker gets pissed at his iPhone at least 4 times a day, complaining about battery life or not being able to turn his 3G off, or even pick up a new signal after activating it.
And about the screen, I'm sorry but you're full of it. The pixel density is *slightly* more, but there is absolutely no way it's as bright.
