Well, will you? ;)

I'll be waiting. If there's nothing massive, I'll keep my 3G.

Yes, I spelt something wrong then clicked the first option in my spell checker. I fail. Hahah. Get over it.
 
if it has enough new features to justify the price, then definitely; otherwise i'll stick with my current iphone until the next one comes around. it also depends on if i can afford it after i buy a mini and a new camera.
 
I have to vote not sure, without knowing what changes there will be in the new phone (hardware), I cant say for certain
 
If the change is as significant as the jump from the iPhone to the iPhone 3G, then I probably won't be able to help myself.

Otherwise, well... I still may not be able to help myself!
 
I was planning on waiting to get my iPhone until this new one was released, but due to unforseen circumstances had to get it a month ago. So more then likely I will not be purchasing the new one unless there's a major change and I can get some sort of subsidized price.
 
Depends. Might get a Palm Pre. Had the original iphone and the 3G, but a little bored and want a new toy that's different.
 
I'm still debating if i will make the switch to AT&T and get the iPhone...i hear both good and bad about the company...just wish the iPhone was available on more than one carrier.
 
I am surprised no one has voted for number 4!

I probably wont be able to afford it this time round, so I might wait until next year. Hopefully the iPhone Uber will be out by then :p:p
 
I will get it, but I definitely will not be defiant about it. :D

I share some of the same concerns as other posters. I have never had AT&T, so I am concerned about their coverage and service. Also, I have heard/read complaints regarding their network speed. Perhaps the new iPhone faster internet business would alleviate this concern though.

All told, I am excited to get my first iPhone this year.
 
You must not be aware of the recession :) anyways I will get it FOR SURE. My mom said she wanted my iphone and said that she will get me the new one in summer so yay me!
 
I was hoping that if I wait long enough, the iPhone will actually be quite good. Don't get me wrong, the idea and implementation are genius, but my Sony w890i is much easier to carry around and has many of the same features. I find the iPhone a bit bulky even when compared to the iPod Touch.
 
I only bought my 3G last November, so it will still be over a year before I'm eligible for a subsidized upgrade. Near the timeframe of a June 2010 iPhone refresh if Apple continues releasing an upgrade in June of the year :)

I just hope that Apple continues to at least make the previous generation relevant with a software refresh. At some point, you have to figure the 1st generation will not be able to keep up (MMS? Though that is probably not a hardware limitation). Next generation, more RAM? Hopefully apps won't require it until at least 2010. Video? I occasionally used it on my previous phone, and wouldn't mind it, but I can live without it.
 
I'll probably keep my 3G for a while. But I'm definitely looking at getting a new one in the summer of 2010.
 
I'll be picking up my first iPhone this year. Even if nothing new comes around or is announced at WWDC I will still be getting the current model then.

I've been waiting 2 years for this for my T-Mobile contract to end so my family can make the switch, So I'm pretty excited and glad I've waited it out.

Here's to High Hopes while maintaining Low Expectations. :D
 
I'm going to wait until it is actually announced so I can see if it will be worth it or not. I probably won't upgrade though, I'm trying to save as much money as I can right now.
