The midnight T Mobile launch in Holland - impressive!

off in the wood · Jul 10, 2008, 08:47 PM

come on 8:00 ET

Romanesq · Jul 10, 2008, 08:48 PM

somehow, some way. Tomorrow I shall get me hands on the 16GB.

One day without having sold the 8GB original, I'm in withdrawal.

slffl · Jul 10, 2008, 08:49 PM

I REALLY like the white!

JML42691 · Jul 10, 2008, 08:49 PM

Looks nice, under 12 hours here. I have to say, the white doesn't look as bad as I thought it would, but it still isn't convincing enough to buy it.

lunarworks · Jul 10, 2008, 08:50 PM

The white box is certainly more attractive now.

GeekLawyer · Jul 10, 2008, 08:51 PM

Must... resist... urge... to... buy.

Playing with my tricked-out iPhone Classic with 2.0 today has really been swell. Will it be enough to keep $299 in my pocket come 8AM? Only time will tell.

Ropedartman · Jul 10, 2008, 08:54 PM

Yeah, the white looks good. Can't wait to see it in person!

Moonlight · Jul 10, 2008, 08:55 PM

That white iphone looks good...

Looks like White is the new black... which was supposed to be the new white after apple made white the new black, but then had a brief time when silver was the new black or was it white ???

airlights · Jul 10, 2008, 08:56 PM

I cannot wait until I get the iPhone 3G in my hands tomorrow. Eee--! 16GB white. (: (:

carve · Jul 10, 2008, 08:58 PM

I think the white looks so much nicer

joelk · Jul 10, 2008, 08:58 PM

white or black? black or white? can't decide. interested in the white but worried i'll regret it later.

i said i was going to resist this one but i'm now thinking about picking one up on the way to work tomorrow.

Abstract · Jul 10, 2008, 09:03 PM

Unlike the Blackbook, the shiny black iPhone back will show every flaw, even moreso than the white.

joelk · Jul 10, 2008, 09:03 PM
