I have cracked the top of my iPhone 3G screen recently unfortunately, but it still works perfectly fine. I am now in a position where i am eligible for an upgrade to the 3GS but don't know whether I should wait till July and hope that apple bring out a new iPhone and get that as soon as it comes out, or should I just get the upgrade to the 3GS which is on a 2 year contract?

What would you do?

Thanks
 
If you *can* wait, you might as well.

If it's a pressing need though, then it's not like any new phone is going to make your existing phone any slower.
 
I always say if you can wait then you should. I'm using a some really old flip phone until it comes out.

Will make it all the more sweet :p
 
thanks for the replies, yehh i think i will stick a screen protector on it and just wait it out, i'm 90% sure its got 5 months left in it.

i have a Treo which just makes me mad and has a VERY small crac on the bottom right and now things get screwed up when i press there.....

I dont think im gonna wait for the new one unless i hear that it will be A LOT better than the 3G......
 
I cracked my 3g screen a week or two ago, ive had it since launch day. I love how durable the iPhone is, it has a habit of slipping out of my hands. Not that bad though and since it otherwise works fine (other than 3.0 sucking on the 3g) ive decided it can last until the new iphone is released.
 
I would see if I can find someone to repair the phone while I wait for the new release this summer.
