I phone users! video viewing tax?

So I heard on the radio today that AT&T wants to start charging extra for Iphone users to play Video on our Iphones.

I tried to do a search for it, but I couldn't find much. I was wondering if anyone else has heard about this or knows what I'm talking about.

I know we have tons of iphone users on here!

I've also heard that Apple's contract with AT&T is about up. Does anyone know if this is true and if other carriers will start carrying the iPhone? I'm getting one in July when my current contract is up.

I hadn't heard that

I wonder what that will do to iphone/att users

ATT exclusive contract ends soon. That doesn't mean they won't carry the iPhone but that other services will also carry it.

There's also been rumors that Apple is manufacturing a CDMA-compatible iPhone which is the network Verizon uses so it wouldn't surprise me at all if it showed up at Verizon. I mean from Apple's standpoint allowing more carriers to carry the iPhone would only be good for them I'd think especially when there's a lot of people who won't switch to AT&T.

And the so-called tax is really only aimed at the 3% of users who are using 40% of the network. I would doubt that any of us fall into that category. Personally I think they'd be better off boosting their network than punishing people but AT&T isn't exactly known for their great customer appreciation.
