I think Apple would create buzz leading up to a release of a new iPhone. They may not release pics of it, but they would have teaser ads running everywhere. For that reason I believe that a lot of you will be let down on the 8th! Cheers!

Since when has Apple released ads giving a teaser of their product other than when they announce the event? Apple would never put up a TV saying "coming soon...on June 8th...we'll announce a new iPhone...that will be released about a month afterwards...we won't tell you anything about...iPhone. AT&T."
 
Well I see a point to it, I also see your point. I think it would be effective by simply showing an Apple symbol and the date of WWDC. Something like that would definitely raise a few brows and get some interest.

Maybe even having a silohette of the new iPhone in the background, of course you couldn't make anything out, other than the basic shape.

I do agree though, probably won't happen. I am looking forward to seeing the *new* iPhone commercial! (it will air at WWDC and after)
 
why would they do it before the existence of the phone has even been confirmed?

after they unveil the new phone/phones at wwdc...we might start seeing some commercials..

I can certainly agree with that :D
 
sooo we should be seeing some REALLY juicy rumors comming in the next few days.... 6 more days !!!!
 
I won't be waiting in line, but I'll try my best to get at least one version of the new device!
 
I got irrationally annoyed last night at a friend who is buying the iPhone tomorrow. I was all "just wait till Monday and SEE WHAT HAPPENS before you get the ridiculously expensive phone" and she was just like "myeh it'll be better than what I have now anyway"

It bugged the crap out of me. On another note who here's letting people they don't like just buy the 3G without mentioning it might be upgraded soon?

My feeling on that is that if you buy something and an updated model comes out shortly after, then it's your fault for not being informed. That's my 2 cents
 
Free Upgrade or Buy New Iphone?!

I already have the Iphone 3G Black, However i was wondering, If the new Iphone does come out on June 8th, does that include UK? and do you get a free upgrade or will i have to sell my Old One and get the New one HEELP!!!:confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::(

Whenever it's released, it will probably be released in the UK same day as US just like the 3G was. And there's zero chance it'll be a free upgrade. You'll have to buy it.
 
I believe Apple has that mindset where if it is free, everyone will have it. Just like all of their other products, they want to be special, but still make it somewhat affordable. They do get a share of the sales.
 
As stupid as it may sound, I can't wait to camp out again. Met a bunch of new people and just talked for a few hours. Even went and got coffee. It was a fun experience (not to mention I was 9th in line)

There obviously is a new iPhone because they were buying new chips, there has been lots of rumors and I think you pretty much know why.

I don't want there to be a new iPhone because I just bought one a few months ago.

yeah that is YOUR fault .. there have been rumors for more than a few months about a new iphone.. so you should have known and NOT bought a 3g.. but you couldnt wait and that is YOUR fault that your impatient and you wont have the best phone out there.. so i cant wait to get my new iphone.. i hope your 3g is going to be good.. with slower processor.no video recording and all the other nice features

Yeah, that was SO uncalled for! You know, some people want to have the latest and greatest and don't have a million dollar budget. So don't hate on them.

I think what you're looking for here is... "I couldn't care less." Saying you could care less means that you do care to some extent. :rolleyes:
