I'm not sure about the US, but I'm sure that it's still selling like hot cakes here in the UK.
practically every UK-based tech and mobile site, has the 3G as it's "Gadget Of The Year."
It's been over a year now since I discovered the wonders of Mobile OSX and I adore my iPhone today, every bit as much as I did when I first got it(1st gen iPhone & 3G).![]()
Well I became eligble to upgrade today and I really like it but my iPod got stolen a few months ago and I've been looking to get a replacement and I figured I like the iPhone and need an iPod so I'll get that but I currently have around 9.5 gigs of music and its only gonna get bigger and I dont wanna be stuck with having to pick and choose which songs go on my iPhone. Plus I plan on putting a lot of apps on there so I'll need the space for that.
Considering how well the iPhone retains it's value, I would say go for it now. You could always sell it back for more than what you paid for it. That's what I did when the 3G model came out.
thats only if they're unlocked
by the release of the 3G,locked first gen 8gigs were barley worth $200
