Why Hasn't AT&T Changed Their $39.99 5000Min N&W's To Unlimited?

Does anyone here work for AT&T? I was just wondering why AT&T has never changed their $39.99 per-month plan to include Unlimited Nights & Weekends. I would imagine greed, but while every other national carrier has changed their prices; AT&T has remained basically unchanged. They did reduce the $19.99 per-month MEdia Net plan price down to the standard $15.00 rate that Verizon and Sprint have been charging.

A few years ago Verizon and Nextel had some of the worse prices, but that problem changed for the better. I still just don't know why AT&T doesn't change their cheapest plan to be inline with the other major carriers? AT&T honestly doesn't offer anything different then Verizon or Sprint. The only thing AT&T really offers is the ability to use SIM cards in Unlocked devices. And once T-Mobile builds out their own 3G network; then AT&T won't stand out anymore.

Is this something AT&T plans to change?
 
While I can't say for sure why they have not changed their pricing structure to be in line with the other phone companies, my guess would be that they believe rollover minutes to be a strong enough factor that people will not care. 5000 min to use in 8-10 days over a month is a great deal, and while it is not as good as unlimited, I believe ATT doesn't see the need or demand from its customers to change this.
 
I used to work for AT&T and the only explanation I got was, as was previously said, the rollover minutes thing since AT&T is the only one to have them. I can say through from my experience with customers I never once saw someone go over on their n/w minutes/
