I'm sure plenty of people got in on the cheap 3GS'. I certainly would if I didn't have enough funds for an iPhone 4. 3GS is still a great phone.

My cousin actually went this route. He still had a Samsung Blackjack, so it was his first iPhone. He liked the 99 price point and he's not like us all here, and need the latest and greatest :D But I did ask him why not go for the iP4, and he said, the $100 made a difference in the price, and as a working dudes, who does okay and has a wife and 2 kids, I understood him....hell though, for 99 the 3gs is a great flippin' phone, he'll have massive amounts of fun with it
