Only AT&T's Network Lets Your iPhone 4S Download Twice as Fast

AT&T is also the only U.S. carrier to offer iPhone 3GS - now available for free online and in AT&T stores, with a two-year term commitment plus voice and data plans, while supplies last.

iPhone 4S is the most amazing iPhone yet, packed with incredible new features including Apple's dual-core A5 chip for blazing fast performance and stunning graphics; an all new camera with advanced optics; full 1080p HD resolution video recording; and Siri, an intelligent assistant that helps you get things done just by asking. With the launch of iPhone 4S also comes the launch of iOS 5, the world's most advanced mobile operating system with over 200 new features; and iCloud, a breakthrough set of free cloud services that work with your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or PC to automatically and wirelessly store your content in iCloud and push it to all your devices.

"We can't wait for our customers to experience the incredible new iPhone 4S on our 4G network and enjoy download speeds of up to twice as fast," said Ralph de la Vega, president and CEO, AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets. "When you combine the nation's fastest mobile broadband network with iPhone 4S, as well as our new pricing for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4, we think we have the best iPhone line up in the industry."

AT&T customers can easily check upgrade eligibility and preorder by visiting www.att.com/phoneupgrade. New customers can visit www.att.com/iphone. Preorders placed online will ship directly to the customer's home with delivery as early as October 14 - eliminating the need to ever visit a store and wait in line.

"Our past experience with iPhone has taught us that speed is the name of the game," said de la Vega. "The faster we help our customers, the better. The faster we ship their new device, the better. And - the faster their network - even better."

In addition to speed, AT&T iPhone customers benefit from several other key advantages:

    --  The ability to talk and surf at the same time
