- No business discounts
- iPhone must be activated before it can be used. Pre-installed SIM card.

To me the most interesting thing about this FAQ is that there is no limitation on who can buy an iPhone, even if you are currently under contract to AT&T. I'm currently on AT&T and out of contract, I get upgrade to a new family plan, get 2 free phones today, then buy the iPhone next week and migrate the plan to that iPhone for an extra $20 a month.

The benefit of me doing this of course is that I can sell the 2 new phones I got for free on Ebay for close to $300 and put that money towards the iPhone, essentially creating my own phone subsidy.

Yep, this is definitely what I'm going to do.
