As it turns out that advice isn't really true. That remark was quoted in the Huffington post and has been retracted. I thought it was strange at the time that Steve Jobs would offer that advice.
I already have an AT&T (formerly Cingular) account and expect to place an order for the iphone on the online Apple store.
I now have to figure out if I am going to keep my Serene phone. I probably will keep it because AT&T will let an account hold add another number for $10.00 monthly. Maybe my Serene phone can be for more formal events. Ha!
