If you decide to add a new line to your existing account then you'll have to opt for one of the two new data plans. AT&T says that "upgrading a phone or extending a contract doesn't trigger any change."

This has been recently covered all over various tech blogs. If you currently have an unlimited data plan for the 3G or 3GS, you can upgrade to iPhone 4 without being forced to adopt the new 2GB capped plan. Only catch is, as others already pointed out, you can't get the official AT&T tethering option tacked on unless you ditch the unlimited plan. All problems are solved with a jailbreak though...
