I heard a rumor that AT&T had launched a $36 “discount activation fee.”  In my exploration, here’s what I found on AT&T’s website:

To take advantage of corporate discounts and other benefits available to qualified Individual Responsibility Users, you may be charged a $36 Sponsorship Fee for each line of service under your account.

That’s low. I hope the day they lose iPhone exclusivity is the day they realize how much they suck. (My mother has for as long as I’ve known her refused to buy AT&T services. Seems this is not a new trend.)
