iPhone 3G - Buy or Not?

The debate about the value of Apple's new iPhone

Since the iPhone G3 is finally in stores today, Apple's of course the main attraction all their television and Zerspanersysteme the lime light. The question here is whether it is worth buying for the former iPhone users. Steve Jobs really screwed their customers over this time: New customers will receive their iPhone 8GB for $ 199, while his former customers to pay $ 399th Do you think the whole "I am a loyal Apple user, what would you score? Wrong. And on top of the fee, all applicants iPhone have a bag full of serious things your understanding. An iPhone purchase, you must enter your credit card (if you're planning to buy milk with the saved money, remember), Social Security No (they obviously do not want illegals buy iPhones), effective government, the United States license or ID and if you an old customer, you the latest mobile phone number and a good reputation account - I bet you regret that ignoring $ 200 too much balance you not? And just to add that sweet coating on the Candy Apple, the activation is responsible for an estimated 15 minutes., so you pay more, go through more effort, and wait an hour in the queue . We hope this is not so great this year.

On the positive side, the iPhone G3 is faster connection from the WiFi, and all those annoying scratches that we work with day to day on our beautiful aluminum back, the news yesterday with the new plastic body. Also you have the choice between black and white. And do not forget the new GPS performed. This time I can not give Apple my satisfaction with this iPhone update. I feel these are just a starter, all necessary for a cheaper model exactly what they think is a better model. After two years of increased pay, they are not just the party. And the main reason for the dramatic new security measures on the need to ensure that the iPhone hacking. It is to a new level: ridiculous.

Needless to say, I can not believe Steve can do this in its users. I mean, he seems like a nice guy, why customer drop without reason? And perhaps that is what attracts me to the conclusion that he is trying to tell us not to buy the iPhone this year .. In addition to the purchase of this year's honor. Unlike in the past year as your iPhone in front of friends, totally intimidated by the technical Marvel (what you actually paid for $ 500), and they comment on how beautiful it is to pull it out and your friends are on their person, I say save the money for the next year, because I think he has a surprise for us, once the contracts. Whatever the glory you paid $ 500 for the last year is over. Yes, if you drag your iPhone, your friends in awe, surprise, but make their Instinct, Palm Centro, or even their own iPhone now that it is a competitive price, and continue with life. The next iPhone purchase for your own amazement. I think a much wiser decision to upgrade your current software than pay $ 500 for 3G and a cheap plastic body. Besides, your old iPhone is now an expression of Apple's user-ship and the money you paid. Wear it with pride until next year.
