I'm shocked at that price for an Apple product.
No 32GB, tho :-\

Did you see the MLB.com app, FA? Realtime scores and videos from your iPhone. Pretty cool for a MLB fan.
-
I was all ready to buy this today, but it doesn't go on sale until July 11 and there's no preordering at the Apple store.
-
Looks like I'll be getting an iphone in July! :D

You WILL stand in line with the apple fanthing contingent if you want one on launch day. Oh yes you WILL, Patel. Lord Jobs hath decreed it!

FA, get it. It's way more useful than a Sony POSP.

I've been hanging on to my dying RAZR, uncontracted, specifically until the new iPhone was announced. But to stand in line with Jobsian fanthings... *shudder*

I don't think I will be standing in line. I predict walking into any store on July 11, and simply buying one off the shelf. :-\

The last iPhone launch was pretty diverse I remember, not like the mouthbreathers you see at most techy launches.

My uncle gave me his Sony Ericsson P1i. It's pretty damn nice.

Where'd you have to touch him to get it? :-*

Apple just sold me an iPhone. I'm glad I waited.
-
i want one too now. maybe when i eventually upgrade to a plan here and not just a prepaid, i can get one.
-
What's the price of the plan?

Sounds like the only thing that's gone up (that we know of) is that the 3G plan costs 10 dollars more.

You'll need bigger punches to destroy the Apple Fanbots.
It's dangerous to go alone, take this:

Sounds like the only thing that's gone up (that we know of) is that the 3G plan costs 10 dollars more.
So that amounts to what? I don't know the price of the original plan.

I think the cheapest including data was 50 or 59. Not sure offhand. For my phone with 3G, I pay 60 a month, and that's with a discount.

:-\
-
Yeah, data plans aren't cheap, but they are sure as fuck useful. I use my phone for data ten times as much as I use it for talking. I also have a separate 3G plan for my laptop.
-
So at $199 we can expect ipod touch to drop in price as well?
I guess I'll have to wait for a bit to hear what they are doing with the Touch line, but no way will I pay $250 for a used Touch when I could get a full iphone at $200 new.
-
sorry, it's still $200 for a FUCKING PHONE

...And a fully-functional MP3/video player, plus the best web browser on a pocket-sized device ever. Have you ever used a smartphone before? They can be incredibly useful; I loved using a Treo 600 and 650 years ago.
If it's actually between 20,000-30,000 yen for an iPhone in Japan, I am buying one for sure. Shit I'll get the 16gb model and then I won't need my iPod Touch anymore.
Going by my iPod Touch, iPhone/Touch rocks because of its internet capabilities and ULTRA-STRONG touch screen. You are NOT going to get scratches on it. It's amazing.
-
What the heck is 3G? I just found that my new phone supports it as well.
My uncle gave me his Sony Ericsson P1i. It's pretty damn nice.

Sorry, there was no incest involved. :(
My uncle is a cellphone freak that gets a new phone every 6 months or so.
I think he was just annoyed that his nephew was using a low end, outdated LG phone from T Mobile.
-
How does this work if I already have a AT&T phone? Do all I do is buy the new iPhone and i'm all set to go with my existing plan? (which is fucking expensive...like $70 a month for nothing.)
-
I think I'm gonna get this thing... just need to bail out of the Verizon family plan I'm sharing. I'm annoyed that it's still AT&T only :maf

That's cheap by PDA cell phone standards.

Well, here's an article concerning the new iphone's price:
How the half-price iPhone 3G actually costs you more

How do you like Helios?
-
Service plan is cheap for what you get and I use the GPS, Ultimate Inbox (gmail, AIM, Yahoo!, MSN and Helio e-mail), and video all the time. It's pretty great that you can snap a pic and upload it to a private server. Or geotag it and put it on your Flickr account. You can upload videos straight to YouTube now. And they've got apps for YouTube (full YouTube, not crappy YouTube mobile) AND Opera Mini, which is a kickass browser.
My main grievances with the device have been multimedia functionality, ease of navigation and some quirks (like why can't I listen to music and IM/browse at the same time). But these look to be address with the Ocean 2. Which is going to have Flash support for the browser.
