yeah, i got the first gen iphone 8gb. im eligble for an upgrade but i think ima wait til next summer. lots of the rumors didnt happen. the difference to 1st to 3g was a lot. but from 3g to 3g s is minimial. that means that from 3g s to the next 4th gen should be pretty big. OLED screen, more memory. cheaper maybe even colors or something different. new design too.
so i think ill just wait.
actually the difference from the 1st to the 3G was not that big, other than the look of it. Only the fact that it has 3G connectivity. This is why I sold my 3G for like $800 on ebay after having it for 7 days...I don't always need high speed. Then I bought it again when Best Buy had it for sale for $150 and my original iPhone broke.
The difference between the 3G and 3G S is bigger because the guts are different. The processor is 600 Mhz and it has 256MB ram. (2G and 3G have 400Mhz and 128MB Ram) and they have the 32GB one now. there are comparison videos out there showing that the 3G S is faster and the internet even runs quicker. Also the video recording is a big step up, and the compass is pretty tight, I could see myself using that when im travelling looking for directions.
Only thing stopping me from upgrading is the thought that they might releasing something way better next summer and I'd be assed out or pay more.
