Will the Nokia rebate be sent to you or applied directly to your AT&T bill?

I've been reading some conflicting details on the limited time rebates and would like to know how it really works...
Gonna sound weird... but I bought it outright. Walked in, paid the full price - I've not been on contract with AT&T for the last two years (it's not an advantage, but man they've been offering more phones and slight discounts here and there) and I personally have a serious issue with anything like a early termination fee (ETF) hanging over my head. Too bad that's not really an advantage in the US like that would be in the rest of the world.

The $100 dollar rebate - since I purchased before April 21st - will appear on my next bill. So if you were to buy one, you will still pay that $100 if you're signing up for a 2 year contract, and on your next billing cycle, you will see it there.

I had to ask around quite a bit before I got that answer. But it was confirmed by both the AT&T billing folks and the regional manager that was in the store at the same time as myself.

Hope that helps.
