If it is indeed true and not just typical misinformation provided by sales personnel in the at&t stores, then I fail to see the logic behind it as well. at&t seems to be recognizing (e.g. the introduction of the smartphone voice plans) that many users are now gravitating toward prepaid service, and for casual international travelers it also makes the most sense. They are missing a large market segment if they don't make the use of their prepaid service feasible with today's smartphones.
