AT&T has chimed in with some information about the 3G iPhone. There's no mincing words. Over two-years, the 3G iPhone will cost owners $40 MORE than the current generation iPhone.What? Are you kidding? 'Fraid not. AT&T revealed new iPhone data pricing. If you run out and buy a 3G iPhone on July 11, you'll have to pay $30 per month to access that sweet, sweet 3G network. Current iPhone owners pay $20 per month for unlimited access.

$300 + that extra $240 over two years = $540. That's $40 more for the device than the current iPhone costs. Nice move, AT&T and Apple.
