There was no press release or official announcement, but AT&T is offering the iPhone 3G for online sale on its business and professional Web site. Though the iPhone has lived on AT&T's biz site since its July 11 release date, previously the site instructed customers to visit their local AT&T for purchase. Now, however, they log into their Premier account "to buy (the) iPhone 3G online today." The cost hasn't changed ($199-$299), but the convenience of buying online is priceless.
