From: Steve Firth on 4 Apr 2010 06:52 It's getting difficult to get hold of some iPhone models. There don't seem to be any 32GB black 3GS models available, white ones are in stock, white 16GB ones are sold out. It's not long until May and the rumour mill stated that May would see a 4G iPhone release. Is this Apple running down stock ahead of May? In which case I may hang on a bit longer before getting an iPhony.

Almost as if new models are around the corner! -- Chris

Almost as if > new models are around the corner! According to the MacRumours buyers' guide, the average between iPhone updates is 178 days and it's been 300 since the last. Whatever that may mean in the real world... :) <http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/> -- flavio matani guitar tuition http://www.flaviomatani.co.uk http://fflavio.com

Much as I love my iphone, I'd dearly love more battery life. The GPS apps drain batteries quickly. One hopes the new model will address this. -- Geoff Berrow (Put thecat out to email) It's only Usenet, no one dies. My opinions, not the committee's, mine. Simple RFDs www.4theweb.co.uk/rfdmaker |
