    Hey guys,
    Hoping someone can help me.

    Myself and GF are planning to get iphone's soon and now that iphone 4 is coming out I just want to ask was there a drop in the price of the 3G when the 3GS came out and how long did it take?


    3GS is currently 200 on bill pay and 3G is 100.

    Thanks

    3GS will be 8GB only and €100 most likely on bill pay. Imo it'd be a big mistake not to pay the €99 extra for a 16GB iphone 4.

    yes it will drop, but by how much.....nobody knows until the networks release the prices.

    i think you can get the3G for 99e so maybe the 3GS will come down to something similar to that and the networks will drop the 3G?

    all just my opinion.

    Probably based on it being $199 in the States, but you are locked into a 2-year contract with AT&T in the states at that price.
    I'm sure it will be similar over here, a low-ish price like that with a high price contract to follow..

    "An 8 GB iPhone 3GS will also be available and will be priced at $99 in the U.S. with a new 2-year contract."

    pay attention 007!


    from the launch of the iphone 4 the 16/32gb 3gs will be discontinued. the only 3gs from then on will be the new 8gb. residual stock of the others will most likely be recalled, apple dont really like to sell old models along with new ones.
