One thing worth noting is that Apple is reportedly planning a major change to its iPhone release cycle this year,...
It's a morbid fascination -- like why a new coat of paint would convince anyone to buy 1 year old phone at full price when the new revision is a couple months away.
May, June, July, August, September + Low Stock month. More like 6 months don't you think!
I for one have a cracked and almost broken iPhone 3G. I will buy the white iPhone tomorrow because it's what I need now.
I won't buy it cause I like the black and it's not exactly cheap. But hey if you can afford it and you like it why shouldn't you buy it? Life is all about the small things that make you happy...
