I want the iPhone 4G SO. MUCH. I hope I can get it subsidized - I've had my 3G about 2 years now, but AT&T is weird about pricing sometimes.

My contract on my BB comes up this summer so this might be the time to finally think seriously about one.

as long as you buy the phone after you are out of contract, you should be okay.

are you sure the Iphone is 4g? I think it is OS 4.0, but not 4G.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I have an original iPhone, so mine should be available for subsidized. But I'll wait until I hear the 4g is working good, or see if it's available on another network. My iPhone is still working just fine.

Apple rumor mill speculation is that it's going to be called either the iPhone 4G or the iPhone HD - I don't know that it will actually have a 4G radio in there. (Though there are also rumors that there will be a Verizon version, which could maybe point to an LTE version at some point.)

what about the new iphone do you like?

Mainly the camera and the ability to fully run the iPhone 4.0 software - my old 3G won't get multitasking at all. And, you know, I've had my phone for 2 years. CLEARLY it is obsolete and time for me to upgrade!

I'm trying to decide if I'm going to hang on to the iphone 3gs I currently have or turn it back in to apple and get the new iphone.

I keep holding out, I just know that the second that I cave and upgrade, there will be a Verizon version.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's a Verizon vendor near me that has a sign up in their window encouraging people to pre-register for their iPhone. I was surprised to see it that concrete.
