"AT&T has the largest voice and data network in America, the largest
mobile-to-mobile calling community and the fewest dropped calls," said
Randall Stephenson, chairman and CEO, AT&T. "AT&T has invested more than 16
billion dollars in its wireless network between 2005 and 2007, and iPhone
customers will enjoy the best voice and data network in the nation."
"We want to make choosing a service plan simple and easy, so every plan
includes unlimited data with direct Internet access, along with Visual
Voicemail and a host of other goodies," said Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO. "We
think these three plans give customers the flexibility to experience all of
iPhone's revolutionary features at affordable and competitive prices."
All iPhone plans include Visual Voicemail, an industry first, which
allows consumers to see a listing of their voicemails, decide which
messages to listen to, then go directly to those messages without listening
to previous messages. Just like email, Visual Voicemail on iPhone enables
users to immediately and randomly access the messages that interest them
most. Unlike most wireless plans that charge additional fees for new
features, there are no additional fees for Visual Voicemail.
iPhone introduces an entirely new user interface based on a
revolutionary multi-touch display and pioneering new software that allows
users to control iPhone with just a tap, flick or pinch of their fingers.
iPhone combines three products into one small and lightweight handheld
device-a revolutionary mobile phone, a widescreen iPod(R), and the Internet
in your pocket with best-ever applications on a mobile phone for email, web
browsing and maps. iPhone ushers in an era of software power and
sophistication never before seen in a mobile device, which completely
redefines what users can do on their mobile phones.
