Yes, I understand what happened with the iPhone, thanks. However, if the retail price for the Bold is as high as many are predicting, you've got a similar situation: a high-dollar subsidized device that AT&T will be looking to make more money on and a unique opportunity to do just that, ie, a device-specific data plan.
Like I said, I'm hoping that doesn't happen, but it's not out of the realm of possibility to think that AT&T might try something.
