Apple has launched the latest incarnation of its iPhone, the 3G S.
Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE my iPhone.
When I went to England last month, the loss of my iPhone on the way to the airport nearly brought me to tears. Living without it for two weeks was a struggle.
I have owned an iPhone for the past two years and in that time upgraded from 1st generation to the 3G. Although I hadn't owned my first phone long enough to upgrade without paying a penalty, the charge was covered by the sale of my 1st generation iPhone on eBay for almost $400! The 1st generation phones could be jailbroken and used on carriers other than AT&T, which made it more valuable than a new 3G which could only be purchased with an AT&T contract. (Without would cost an astronomical amount!)
I could do the same thing this time around - sell my 3G on eBay and upgrade to the S with a penalty. My current contract doesn't expire until December 2010, so I am not eligible for the upgrade pricing. Sale of the 3G would likely offset some of the price of the new iPhone, but since I am unemployed and about to start college again, I am not really in a position to pay any extra money for the latest gadget - which I don't need, but want.
So, if you're still with me and you bought an iPhone 3G S or know someone who did, please send me a note! Leave me a comment and tell me what you think! Is it super-fast? Is this your first iPhone or can you compare? What do you love or hate about it?
Tell me... I need to live vicariously through you!!!
