I have decided to get an iphone but I have heard rumors that a new version is supposed to drop in the next few months. How true are these rumors? Should I hold off and not get the 3g? Also I was wondering, if I canceled my contract and decided to use gophone plans would I have to unlock my phone?
Got a tip for us?

Aww these questions are cute!
Well, I'm guessing there will be a new iPhone in June (maybe July, but I think June) and my ****GUESS**** is that it will have 32gb storage max as opposed to the current 16gb, a better camera, and possibly a design change as well. How important these upgrades are to you should dictate whether you buy now or wait another month or two.
Personally, I find the iPhone camera totally adequate for grabbing a photo of something on the fly, 16gb is fine (I always have 5gb free anyway), and I love the design and feel of the phone in my hand.
But barring a complete eye sore, I'll still likely upgrade to the new iPhone when it comes out because I must have the latest and greatest .. I'm petty like that. 🙂

Yes, you should definitely wait. The new iPhone 3.0 OS will be released for all phones, but the new phone will be a whole lot better. You can definitely wait a month, and you should because the new iPhone will have a new layout that utilizes special chips for its core processor that will make it more powerful.
