your right... I'll just turn off my 3g and forget about it, until I pay my $74 US Dollars payment to AT&T each month. and wonder why I am wasting my money.
My guess is that Steve will just quickly tell us during MacWorld that the 32GB 3G is coming and it will probably release late January or early February

WOW to me this phone since it's introduction seemed to be done on the cheap! I work in the printed circuit board industry by the way and China's quality has dropped significantly! If your going to enjoy the freedom and comfort that living in this great country provides and STILL send work to China to make more of a profit I think the least you could do is better incoming quality control! The first iPhone had none of these issues and if it had it would not of been nearly the success that it eventually became. Apple made a mistake on this model. It is much more than the software (which sucks) or the network. Having said all of that, the iPhone is still the best at what it does. I do wish I never upgraded my software on my original though.

Right? People, it's a fact of life: Technology progresses. Does it suck for consumers sometimes? Yes. The real question you have to ask yourself is, do I need to be on the bleeding edge all the time, and if so, why? If it's worth it for you to continually wait, then do it. Other people aren't going to be able to figure this out for you.
(on a side note, isn't it a bit...odd to pick up so many accessories before being sure you're going to actually buy the device?)
The current iphone hasnt even had the issues worked out. Why are you worrying about the next one>?
This just in : New iPhone coming out soon, save your money and wait, it's coming... any minute now... wait for it...
I think you may see a new iPhone by Macworld of next year, but currently it seems that MobileMe is getting a lot of attention, then the new iPod nano and touch, then probably a new iPod revision in January.
Man, I wish they can slow down a bit. My wallet is not fat enough to keep upgrading!
Try turning off 3G in the system prefs. My coworkers have had much greater signal since turning that off. It bites that you can't utilize the faster network, but that is AT&T's fault because the network now has too many users for the infrastructure.
Well, shoot. If Apple ACTUALLY LISTENS to user feedback and ACTUALLY makes corrections, and the next version of the iPhone fixes everything that people complain about the current version, then the next iPhone will be one heck of a phone!
I'm guessing the next version will be coming out in July 2009. It will probably be called
the "iPhone3G v2" or something like that.

I don't think Apple will be splitting off the iPhone into more than one model anytime soon since its still a new product. The appeal of the iPhone is that it does "everything". Having a phone that does less (negative for customers) and cost less (negative for Apple). Apple will not consider adding another model until interest in the iPhone declines even after it is refreshed. It's better to focus marketing and support on just one popular product.

The next iPhone 3G will be called the new iPhone 3G to make it easier for consumers. We can differentiate by calling it iPhone 3G (2nd gen) when we discuss it in the forums.
I haven't posted here in a while, but I bought my iPhone a while ago. It broke, and I got a new one from Best Buy yesterday (the greatest extended warranty ever). It hasn't been turned on yet because the Invisible Shield is still drying, but by tomorrow night I'll have the thing filled up with music and video.
