I don't think 4am will get you a good place in line. There are crazy/dedicated people out there that are willing to camp out the night before in line. Think Black Friday lines in front of Best Buy, only it's the summer time so it'll be warmer, and in front of Apple and AT&T stores.

Anyone who is willing to camp out for a device that will be outdated in 2 months is nuts. I'll wait till the craze is over and get one then.Comment

Yeah my buddy said he was going to stop by at 6am, an hour before work to try to get a phone, I told him good luck as people camp out overnight, I wish I could have my iPhone in hand so I could eff with all the people waiting lol, but I wont have mine till sometime that day, when ever FedEx delivers.
Outdated in two months? How so when Apple wont even release the actual 4g 4th gen iPhone till sometime in 2011?Nikita Khrushchev said"We can't expect the American People to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism.

What I think is funny is the people who don't want to get locked into a contract.
Say you got stuck wtih the entire $175 early termination fee, you don't think you could find someone who wanted to buy your used iPhone4 off you for $175 in a heartbeat?
Unless you completely trash it, you are good to go, no risk.
They day Verizon or Sprint release a network that is superior to the AT&T 3G network *and* have a sweet device that can leverage it, I'll be first in line. Until then, i'm in queue for an iPhone 4!sigpic Find me on IRC chat at irc.dal.net in room #CGTComment

I'm debating what to do. I have a 3GS and I can't buy anything at subsidized prices till July 2011. If I decide that the new features are worth it, I may cancel and renew my contract, or something, I dunno. $700 for a phone (even without a contract) is pretty ridiculous.
However, I am one of these geeks that use mine so much every day... and I use the video and camera a lot. Hrmmm...
I guess the only thing about canceling is that you'll be on the limited data plan and the cancellation fee of $175 or whatever makes it still nearly the same as the unsubsidized price. Maybe I can get someone to use their upgrade for me.Last edited by corrupt; 06-21-2010, 6:19 PM.Never water another man's whiskey.Comment

Oh I know, but apparently it breaks down like this for those that aren't eligible for an upgrade:
1) cancel and get subsidized price: $175 cancellation + $399 phone + being locked in to 2 year contract = $575
OR
2) buy unsubsidized phone and not extend contract = $699
Screw that, it's not worth that much $ when I already have a 3GS with a contract that won't allow a "cheaper" upgrade. I'm a geek but I'm not a moron. The bigger battery and better camera is all I'll miss I guess.Never water another man's whiskey.Comment

That is what would be the deal breaker for me. I would hate having to worry about usage. With all the large data coming down the pipe (video chat, netflix, pandora running in the background) I don't want to have to think about usage.
Thankfully I am grandfathered in from my 3G.
BTW: iOS4 makes my phone feel much snappier, even on a 3G which ran super slow before.You think you know, but you have no idea.

Yeah I can't tell a big difference on my 3GS really, it's just as quick as ever, maybe a tiny smidge faster but I dunno.
Multitasking is fine, although I never really thought it a big deal. I played around with the backgrounder app on my jailbroken phones and it was seldom used. I used it mostly to background the downloading of other jailbroken apps that were huge. I guess I'll use pandora or last.fm more often in the car now because of it.
I think the best thing for me is you're not limited to just 1 microsoft exchange server email account, so now I can have my google apps and gmail account messages pushed to the phone.Never water another man's whiskey.Comment
