I've been to busy at work lately to search for any news. Anyone got anything?!

Oh, and I've been playing on my 3gs a lot, hehehe.

I know dude.

Work has been really hectic and I just needed a break, hehe.

Once I got my iPhone I decided it was time to sit back and chill for a while and not be so frantic all the time about cramming research time between the work and family schedule.

Things will pick back up again and we can start posting up new news soon enough. Thanks for the bumps, lol. Funny this thread is still being brought up every now and then, it's been fun.

I always take a look whenever it gets 'Bumped'

For all I know, there could have been a news flash and a whole new iphone could have been released underneath my eyes. This thread is more like a semi-live blog lol.

Have you jailbroken, Indy?

Nice to see you back Indy. Like you I'm really enjoying my 3GS. There seems to always be something new I still learn. Have you decided on an external battery yet?

My guess is that it won't be released until shortly after WWDC next year...and my hope is that it'll be a more interesting upgrade than the 3GS was for us 3G users. I found nothing in it that made me scream "wow I need that"...video? Meh - jailbreak does enough video on the off chance I dont have my flip with me...compass? meh, already have old school GPS unit in my car...so really nothing I needed.

Honestly the only feature I've heard even tossed about that would make me run out and snag it:
Slide out physical keyboard. Same feature that might allow it to compete on an enterprise level. I've gotten used to the touchscreen, but still type much faster on my blackberry. Apart from that - more traditional remote wipe process, like blackberry - corporations don't want to leave the onus on the user to know to do that if they lose their phone.

I heard a new one is coming out before Christmas, as Apple is trying to break the yearly WWDC iPhone announcement cycle.

you kinda skipped over the "twice as fast" feature.
