Regardless of price and new features will you purchase the new iPhone this summer?

Personally I will, part of my addiction.

Yeah, I'll buy a new one either way. I mean the 3GS wasn't a huge jump for some (I like the speed though), but I think this will be an even bigger jump than 3G > 3GS.

Also, for 2 phones on a family plan it makes more sense:
- I never extend the warranty +$138
- I can sell my 2 old ones for $300 each +$600
- 2 new iPhones ones for $500 (early upgrade price) + $300 (full discount after 12 months due to price of monthly bill on main line)

$800 - $600 - $138 = $62

I voted yes. I most definitely could sell my 3gs for a price much higher than I actually paid for it and that will give me some recovering cost of whatever the new phone price will be. I'm excited to hear about the features for iPhone 4G.

i voted no for now, but i'm sure that will change. i'm hoping that besides the actual hardware, the software will be the same in the 3GS and new iphone. front facing cameras dont interest me at all. flash is no biggie to me either. so besides storage and form factor, there wouldnt be a whole lot for me. now the software is what i'm excited about, if we get multitasking and better notifications i'll be happy for a while!


now all that said, i'm sure that when push comes to shove and i read all about the new phone here, i'll be on craigslist selling my 3GS to get a new one! damn this just like crack!! LOL

I voted no, because if there isn't much of a difference, I don't see the reason.

Of course, I felt the same way about the nifty 3GS sitting on my desk right now.

Yes

I've bought every other model iPhone that's come out, so why stop now? Plus, I'm hoping that work will pick up the tab for it. Of course now I have to figure out how to fit the iPad into my Apple budget as well...

I think it'll be great to see what apple has up their sleeve this time. I have the 3G model so I'm definetly ready for the upgrade. I think there are some good things to look forward to. iChat (maybe), cosmetic redesign, multitasking, and a few others. A new color choice would be sweet! I don't think we will see flash though. In fact I'm pretty sure. If the ipad isn't going to have it, I would bet my bottom chip the iPhone won't. Oh well.

I will either get the new iPhone or switch to Android. My Apple tattoo says I should probably stick with the iPhone.

Yes. Of course. A no-brainer for me. I always sell my iPhone's for around $600-$650, and AT&T's will subsidize the rest. I love my FAN. :D
