Dont be stupid people. Its the business website. Most business websites in most industries sell to business customers through contracts based off of List Price.
The $750 shown isnt the Retail Price, its the List Price. every company gets different discounts off List based on whatever contract they signed (not subscriber contracts like with retail, but foundation account contracts).
Whatever company's Premier site that was taken from obviously gets 60% off List Price on their phones. Premier prices are not the same for all businesses. Its based on their foundation account discount. This also means that its possible retail price will be different than the $299 pictured above.
I agree with Robbie...being an AT&T Premier client I know that they pull this crap all the time...all you have to do is look at the price for almost any of the PDAs they have on the Premier site ($1000+)...apparently ATT must think that business consumers are even dumber than regular consumers (you should see the terms and conditions with buying an iPhone on the Premier site - if you buy an iPhone you have to give up all corporate discounts you were once getting on your service - 28% a month for me...which is just another reason why I, a business consumer, would never buy an iPhone).
