I know I'm a pushover for the latest gizmo, but I definately feel I am a lightweight, lol!

If you look it says: (5) not use this line of service to replace an existing account with AT&T. If these conditions are not met, you hereby authorize Amazon.com to charge your credit card $250 as reimbursement of this equipment discount without need for further approval.

Tried both the 800 number and my local corporate store in Santa Cruz, CA. They cannot match the price, the local store stated that since it was Amazon it was being sold by a 3rd party carrier hence the $250.00 cancellation fee on top of the $175 AT&T fee. I have existing service and trying to port over another phone from Verizon. Dang it, no love. BG, anyone help!!! I need another Curve! No love so far from corporate.

Hope this post helps save you guys a few dollars. Hurry no telling how long this deal will last.

Even more interesting, they'll give you back $75 to take a Blackjack off their hands! AT&T is clearing the decks (decks of inventory that is) in advance of June 29. It's a heckuva deal actually, esp. the Blackjack. Use it for 6 months until the equipment subsidy goes away, then just put it on the cell swapping site and get something new. There are going to be SO many new phones coming out 2nd half of this year, pretty good deal if you need one now. With the rebate, according to amazon’s site, you get $25 dollars back for the phone.
