I've been with AT&T for about 8 years now; 7 of them without contract. We have so many rollover minutes that I never pay more than monthly minimum. But what bothers AT&T is that I have no data plans, and am not interested in one. Every couple of months they offer me a good upgrade deal, which I turn down because it would require a contract. Lately, the offers have been for a couple of free iPhones.

I'm not at all interested in the iPhone (or Apple anything for that matter). What I am interested in and waiting for are the smart phones running Windows 8. Then I may be tempted and if I am, I'll be free to get the best deal with any carrier.
