AT&T's CEO Randall Stephenson said, "You'll have it next year". AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson told reporters that a 3G version will be available next year.
AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson also said that he couldn't say exactly when it will be available, or how much more it will cost than the current version of the iPhone, which sells for $399.
Stephenson didn't specify a launch date, but Jobs will probably make an official announcement at Macworld 2008 in January.
