Is it possible to get an iPhone as an iPod...?

I was just wondering. I do not have an iPhone but is it possible to get an iPhone without the AT&T contract?
I guess my real question is can you get a refund of AT&T services when you cancel it right after buying iPhone? I thought it would be cool because it would be like an iPod Touch with a built-in camera. Also, I heard a lot of negatives associated with AT&T.

You can purchase an iPhone without the 2-year commitment. But you have to purchase it from AT&T, you'll pay the full price ($499 to $699), and you will have to activate the iPhone with AT&T before the iPhone will do anything other than allow 911 calls, which means a voice and data plan even though you're not committed to a particular term. It's possible that you could cancel, but is having that camera really worth the $300 to $400 premium you'd be paying to get an iPhone. You can pick up iPhones used, but they still usually come at a premium price and you can get into all sorts of headaches with activation, or lack thereof.
Sorry, but having an "iPod touch" with a camera isn't achievable in a practical sense right now. I'd recommend that you wait until September, which is when Apple usually releases new iPod models, and see if they release an iPod touch with a camera.
Regards.

    As a clarification, you can have up to 5 devices with iTunes.
    Sorry, this is incorrect.  The limit of 5 relates to the number of computers you can authorize to use iTunes, NOT the number of iOS devices you can sync with a single iTunes library.  You can sync as many iOS devices as you like to iTunes.  See whitewater2's post below... he is syncing at least 6 iOS devices with the same iTunes library.

  • Can't get my iPhone (iPad or iPod touch) to connect to wifi

    I cannot get my iPhone 4s to connect to wifi in my home since the last two updates. It sees my network but says unable to connect. This not only happens to my iPhone 4s but to my iPad 2 and my iPod touch. Idk what else to do to get it to connect. My other non apple products work just fine on my wifi but my apple products wont. Please help me I am about to go crazy.

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Do they connect to any Wi-Fi network?
    If they connect to others, it's an issue with your router most likely.  Start by power cycling the router.
    If they do not connect to any Wi-Fi network, then it's likely a hardware issue.  Although it is highly unlikely that 3 devices would have the same hardware failure.

  • I have a Powerbook G4 running on OSx version 10.4.11.  I would like to get an iphone, but non-seem to sync with my computer.  Is there any options for me?

    I have a Powerbook G4 running on OSX Version 10.4.11.  I currently have an Iphone 3, but it cannot sync with my computer because it reverts back to a version so old that I can't even text photos.  (I have itunes 9) I would like to get a new phone because mine constantly freezes up, but I figure what's the point of getting an iphone if it won't sync with my laptop.  I can't even listen to music on my iphone! Is it possible to get an Iphone 4s to sync with a G4 Powerbook? 

    Hello,
    Sadly not as an iPhone 4 running iOS 6 or above needs Mac OS X 10.6.8 or higher to sync in iTunes.
    Mac OS X 10.6 is not compatible with an PowerBook

  • HT1766 Is it possible to save an iphone that has been submerged in water?

    Is it possible to get the iphone in working condition again if it has been submerged in water?

    Make sure not to power it on, put it in a bag with rice for a few days; and test it out then, and pray. Really once a device is submerged in water your warrenty is nulled; you can get a replacemen tfor 149$; but this is the only hope you have to see if the device will work afterwards.
