Spotted the iPhone on The colbert Report. during a routine parodying Twitter, Colbert used a 2G while Jeff Goldblum had a 3G. I guess that even celebs must have to wait for upgrades!

Some people just don't care that much, and most celebs don't have time to browse the web while walking, cause they are always going from point to point to point and there is always WiFi and computers there :p the 3G speed isn't that important for them.

Oh and I doubt colbert even uses an iPhone. Like most celebrities I'm sure he has a blackberry. Most celebs have old blackberry curves. No idea why.

Colbert has had that iPhone since the first summer it was released.

Jimmy Fallon is another Apple supporter/promoter.. He has a mouse, keyboard, and MacBook sitting on his desk during his shows.. And he twitters from an iPhone I believe.

usually these shows go for "product placement" as in the movies. So...any TV host can have the phone they choose with replacements as often as they desire. I Twitter in landscape on a 2G!

Maybe the figure that just because they have the money to spend isn't reason enough to go out and do it... if they're happy with what they have, why change it? Or if it ain't broke, don't fix it :D In this case, if he does have a berry, his loss :)
