Unless he's talking about having two cell phones, I take it the "current provider" is your land line. Not many people in this world have dual cell phones. But if you do, then once again - do the research if you don't want to use a different provider.
I read that as he's talking about buying the iPhone without a contract for service with AT&T (which you can do) and wanting to use it with an existing contract for service.

For example, I have a contract with Rogers. I want an iPhone, I should be able to use the SIM card from Rogers in the iPhone, but I can't, because the iPhone is locked to only accept an AT&T SIM card.
