Wait until the January 6th announcement. If something is announced, buy the iPhone. If nothing is announced, by the iPhone.

I'd just buy it now. Unless you NEED 32GBs of space, it's not worth waiting.

Yet if they release a 32GB iPhone, even if the OP doesn't need 32 gigs, it's likely that they will reduce the price of the 16GB and have the 32GB iPhone cost what the 16GB version does presently (and remove the 8GB iPhone option).

Or if you can wait six months, odds are that an entirely new iPhone will be released in Late June/Early July.

The "new" iPhone rumor deals with a lesser model, more likely to be something like a Razr that doesn't do as much data stuff. The other thing is a storage bump to 32GB, which may include a price cut (I'm just guessing on that).

I haven't seen squat about any later updates, so I wouldn't wait for any of that. Maybe a better camera, little bit better battery life.

As far as push e-mail, yes, that would be software (if your provider does it). Data usage, my stats say 209MB, which is probably over a couple of months.
