Well, I don't see it that really. Granted we got 100$ rebates for what that was worth, but remember we are now one year out. The new phone *in theory* will have a feature set that is superior to what we have now. Apple has been with AT&T and has seen what the revenue stream from year one looks like, so they might adjust their business model based on those numbers, or allow AT&T to do the same. If it is a subsidized model and they make a compelling reason to get one I might upgrade mine, but I am still on the fence. 3G and GPS is no reason for me to do it really. We will get the software and access to the store for apps, I have an 8 gig but am still fine with the size (I don't need my phone to be a garbage dump). So I know I am one of those folks that will be waiting and watching. There is no way I will get a new one in the first month or two of its release. I want to see reviews and stats on what we lose to gain the few things we might get.
