iPhone 3G is the new hotness
According to Gizmodo, it’s likely going to be difficult to obtain the new iPhone 3G, especially for those of us with obligations that will keep us from standing in long lines when it becomes available 07/11:
We just talked to AT&T’s President of National Distribution Glenn Lurie, who gave us all the pricing and activation details for the iPhone 3G, which won’t be getting special treatment anymore. It will be using all AT&T’s standard voice and data plans, which means $30 for unlimited 3G data for consumers, $45 for business users, on top of voice. Also, no in-home activation for iPhone 3G—it does require a two-year contract, and it will have to be activated in store (at AT&T or Apple Store), which takes 10-12 minutes, meaning that first day line is going to SUCK.
