John, you and "Swiper" are officially the last two humans on earth to have 4gb iPhones! LOL
If there really is a 32gb version 2 coming out, you won't know what to do with all that space, should you upgrade!
My N95 has the MediaNet plan for $15. I get unlimited internet uploads and downloads. (although there may be a 5gb/month soft cap). That phone switches from 3G to EDGE and back all day long. Much the same way the new iphone will due to AT&T's spotty coverage. My 95 can and does download a crapload of data while on 3G too. I never get charged more, and in fact, AT&T does not have a 3g MediaNet plan and a seperate EDGE MediaNet plan. Charging more for iPhone users would be considered prejudice to me. If they increase internet rates for the iPhone, they have to increase it for every other phone capable of 3G. Furthermore, if your phone doesn't stay on 3G all month long, a prorated bill would be a MUST.
I don't believe prices will go up at all. Upgrading to 3G is inevitable for retaining customers. As one with a Business Degree, I can tell you that a 5% increase in customer retention could mean as much as a 75% increase in profitability. In addition, it costs nearly 5 times as much for a company to attain one new customer, as opposed to retaining one. I'll be glad to post my reference for anyone who would like to read up on the fine art of customer matrices, paradigm shifts in business, and forecasting profitability.

...And a BIG Thanks to dwp1975 and up10ad for providing me with my dream phone...the iPhone!
I never understood how that worked, could you enlighten me?
Their probably thinking that if you can afford an iPhone you can afford the extra money to use have oneI remember when the iPhone first came out and people saw the price tag, everyone would be like why would you pay $600 dollars for a "phone"? My only comback would be "why wouldnt you"

I looove my v1 phone...very excited to see all the new apps and such this June..I have a sickness tho, I must have the newest gadget from Apple...The only thing that might change my mind would be if the look of the phone changed dramatically as I really like this one. Other than that, I'm selling this bad boy to a friend or on ebay and getting the new one...
