I also am in a market that will be transitioning to AT&T from Alltel. I have spoken to many of the reps at AT&T and the have stated that AT&T will be sending offer letters on the 16th of this month with the choices of phones that they will give us. I also have a touch pro, and they stated that the closest equivalent will be the Tilt 2(Touch Pro 2). Also, if you accept one of the phones they offer you, they will allow you to continue your current rate plan. If you choose to upgrade, then you will have to follow what their contract states. If you stay with your current plan and do not upgrade to an AT&T plan, you WILL NOT get roll-over minutes or any of the other "perks" that would would get if you had an actual AT&T rate plan.

What ATT 'perks' do you speak of?

What are you leaning toward doing when you get your letter? Taking the Tilt, or upgrading and being bound to a contract?

Basically it looks like you will not get the rollover option. I will wait and see. I did get an iphone 3g off ebay, jailbroke and unlocked it. If they give me a decent phone as an offer, I will use that and just use the 3G as an ipod, if not..then the iphone will be my primary phone. I already themed it to the HTC HD2 theme..toook some time to do.
