My wife wanted an iPhone so I jumped on the 8G. She doesnt care about the new 3G anyway so no big deal for her.
For me... waiting for the 3G.

I tried ordering two iPhones as separate orders and they emailed me and cancelled one even thought I have two lines of service. I guess one per household means one per household no matter what.
You choose the contract when the phone arrives and you activate it. In other words, you can choose to NOT activate it with ATT. I don't know if you can get one with a Canadian shipping address...
Last time, they lasted from showing up in the morning (I'm not sure exactly when; may have been as early as an automated midnight EDT rollout) till 5:30-6PM EDT that same day....
Remember, now people. There is speculation that the NEW iPhones will be subsidized and CHEAPER than these refurbs ($199 and $299 with a 2 year contract).
Buy if you plan to unlock, though...

I bought an 8GB refurb from AT&T last time round. The phone is in great condition so I purchased a 16GB refurb this time.
I figure that since I'm on T-Mobile and have no intentions of joining the dark side and paying $20-$30 to upgrade from 8GB to 16GB, i think it's a great deal.

When I spoke with the lady on the phone she said I will get my hone in 2 to 3 days, and they use DHL. So hopefully Saturday or Monday.
Hmm...guess we'll see. Last time it sold out in under a day and that was it until today.
If it's sold out then that's fine with me too.. It could be a blessing in disguise since the new 3G phone is coming out soon. It's probably better for me to buy one then.
When I finally decided to purchase a refurbished iPhone, AT&T already took it off, so that probably means the iPhone 3G and I are meant to be, 
. I was really conflicted earlier about whether or not I should get one, but "patience is a virtue."

Thats awesome for you, but I can't find a soul to buy mine! I guess people in Maine are all set with the iPhone. If you know anyone who wants to buy an 8 gigger, let me know!
