I've seen a bunch of polls asking "which color" or "8gb or 16gb", but I don't think I've seen "which iPhone 3G", so here you go.
 
Trust me when I say I'd love the 16gig. The problem is, I want a good 50 bucks spare, for applications at launch, so I will settle with 8 gigs. I don't ever really have the need to carry much more than 100 songs at a time, and I only need a movie or two on my iphone at once, so I should be fine. I have an 8 gig touch now, and I do just fine with that.
 
16GB black all the way. I'm just not sure how I'd like the white version. I would have to see it in person first.
 
well the extra 8 GB would be nice, I don't need it...8 GB will be enough

You don't need it yet...
Think of all the apps you'll be able to download. Not to mention your music, movies, tv shows, pictures, etc..

As for me, im going for the 16GB black iPhone.
 
Black 16 GB to match my black Plantronics 925. Its like they were made for each other.
 
Wow, I guess I was just totally off. I thought for sure the $199 price tag would be the driving force to expand the iPhone market share. Maybe we need another poll. "Which iPhones are first time buyers choosing?"
 
So we have 90% 16gb and 10% 8gb. I say this September we see a price drop in the 16gb and discontinuation of the 8gb.
 
I was thinking about the 8GB actually, since my current 8GB phone is only half full (jailbroken with APPS).
But now I am thinking.......hmmm... Damn. I wish I didn't have to make a decision:mad:

I just feel bad paying £60 for 8gb of memory - I can buy a microSD card for £18! If only the iPhone had a microSD slot!

That said I'll pay the extra on the day if they have them

Yeah, if they have them I will probably come out with the 16gb.

We're a bit sad really aren't we :rolleyes: but what the hell - you cannot have enough storage. I have a WinMo phone with a 4gb microSD card and 3 months ago I could not fill it - now I have to delete stuff all the time!
 
I dunno if it's the same thing but imagine if you have the white ipods and pretend it's the white iphone, look at yourself in the mirror holding that thing in your ear? For a guy like me, no offense, but it looks gay :p:D. So I went with the black one ;).

I have a feeling that there will be a ton of useless but cool apps that everyone will download, and their memory will slowly deplete.
