It's very possible that one was talking about that and other was about this, and after the fact, it'll make sense. (But in a odd way. ) One said it will be a special rate for iPhone, while another said it won't be exotic. This can be easily reconciled if we say that exotic doesn't necessarily mean special but rather more like 'weird'. Pesto, no contradiction.
AT&T Head of Division #1: "We'll have special pricing for iPhone but we're NOT announcing the prices until June 29."

... followed by, hours later on the same day:

AT&T Head of Division #2: "We'll definitely be announcing the iPhone prices in advance, and the prices won't be anything exotic."

It's not the end of the world, but those two statements were massively contradictory, and either imply these people are flying by the seat of their pants to some extent or AT&T has at least one idiot in charge of a division.
