IT’S HERE, IT’S BLACK (AND WHITE) AND I WANT IT NOW!
Entry model going for $199 (only black), it’s suppose to be a globally fixed price as well, which is good but I’m not quite sure what it means. Also, with a price of a measly $199 mixed together with the tremendous iPhone buzz we’ve experienced during the last year, the iPhone 3G is bound to reach a state of ubiquity. The other model, 16GB of storage goes for $299. Needless to say which one I will be getting. $100 extra for twice the storage in a bad boy like this is one easy decission.
Starting July 11th (bummer, long wait), it will be available in the countries below.
Australia, Austria, Belgium (French), Belgium (Dutch), Canada (English), Canada (French), Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland (French), Switzerland (German), UK, USA.
Only “disappointment” is that the camera is 2 megapixles. I actually think the camera on the iPhone 2G suits my purposes (Flickr, blogging and e-mailing to pics to friends) and words well in decent lighting conditions so it’s definitely not a dealbreaker for me.
Naturally, Stevie J also introduced the new iPhone 3G ad. Someone had enough foresight to film it during the presentation. See the above post.
All hail iPhone 3G!
