re: Question for people who deal with the AT&T "next plan"

Why are people so retarded when it come to buying phones and this next plan and other similar plans/situations??

I mean can people not do basic math that will show them either way they were buying a phone and paying a premium price for it?

You can buy it at the beginning at the end, pay full or pay installments... but it's all still buying the phone and paying top retail for it.
