AT&T Forcing Users To Pick Between New iPhone Or Old Unlimited Data Plan
I finally got through to try and place an order for my iPhone 4s and I was greeted with this lovely (err... terrible) message:
"Your new device requires a different Data Add-on Plan than you currently have. We selected a compatible Data Add-on Plan for you. If you want a different plan, you can change the Data Add-on Plan by selecting Change here or from within myAT&T after you receive and activate your new device."
See the below applicable images and notice that there is no longer an option for me to continue to use my unlimited dataplan despite having the unlimited dataplan with AT&T since 2008:

Note: The discounted pricing is related to an EDU discount from my wife.
Update 1: The upgrade option is still unlimited as long as you continue through checkout but their order page is just unnecessarily confusing. Just keep clicking continue. I'm calling ATT to confirm that both of our upgraded phones get the discount.
