Who is going to rush out and get the new 16gb iPhone?

[Pierre.Suave]

Anyone?

besides me?

I needz the storage...

[Initech]

1. I'd rather have the 32GB iPod touch.

I like the iPhone but I fucking hate AT&T and I refuse to patronize them.

[Bake]

2. Oh hell, something ELSE I gots to have!

Bake

[Omphaloskepsis]

3. I'm happy with my 8Gig Touch...

I have about 500 Gigs of music/movies so I don't even think of taking all of them with me. I just have a smart playlist that uploads the last 5Gigs of music iTunes played. And I manage video by hand since I have to convert it with iSquint first.

[bif]

4. I'll be getting the 160G iPod first

My 40 gig has been full for quite a while. But the iPhone is way cool.

[quip]

5. Bah. I'm stuck with my $600 8 gig one....

But I LOVE it! :loveya:

[Pierre.Suave]

9. Want another one?

LOL.

I am going to sell this one and get a bit more storage.

[SKKY]

6. I don't really need a new phone...

...but I want that iTouch. I'm thinking that sometime before Christmas they'll come out with one in the 60-80gb range. Then, I'll jump ship. Until then, my 160gb iPod will just have to do.

7. The thing that I love about my 80G iPod is that I can fit my entire music collection plus

audiobooks and podcasts with lots of room to spare. So I guess I'm holding out for at least a 60G iPhone.

[sakabatou]

8. I'm going to stick with my iPod classic

It works for me :P

[Pierre.Suave]

10. I have a normal iPod

but this is an iPhone!!!!

[sakabatou]

12. Whatever.

[Pierre.Suave]

14. uhmmm

ok...

[AlCzervik]

11. no.

[Bake]

13. On second thought, maybe I'll wait for the 160gB iPhone ...

Oughta be out in a month or two, right?

Bake

[Pierre.Suave]

15. That might be a while

but damn would I like that.

Right now, I think the largest flash based memory drive available is only 64gb.

[TommyO]

22. 128Gb Flash drives are coming soon

but they'll carry a huge price premium over even the existing 64Gb drives.

[Pierre.Suave]

30. yeah they will

but the sooner they are out, the sooner they come down in price.

YAY!

[LSK]

16. why do you hate America?

[Pierre.Suave]

17. What does this have to do with the iPhone?

Explain it to me.

[LSK]

21. Consumerism

[Pierre.Suave]

23. ok

[TommyO]

18. I'm not going to ruch out and get one

but I will be getting one in March (that's when we get our bonuses) and that's good enough for me.

[Pierre.Suave]

19. WooHoo

one month, how can you wait.

[TommyO]

20. I've gotten out of the habit of instant gratification with toys and tools

Since the iPhone is both a tool and a toy, and it goes past my $300 justification point for toys, I'm just biding my time.

[Pierre.Suave]

24. That is smart.

I have just begun doing that.

[TommyO]

25. The $300 limit that I've set for those "toy" purchases

allows quite a bit. I bought an Apple TV last year and still use it regularly today, as I do my TiVO HD. Both came in just under that $300 mark. I never would have bought a TiVo Series 3 because of it's price tag.

For larger purchases, I wait until I have the extra spending money, using credit cards for nothing but travel and emergency use.

[Pierre.Suave]

26. That is what I have begun doing

saving for larger purchases and trying to curtail spending overall.

This economy has me a bit worried.

[Dora]

27. Aren't you getting married?

Do the words "bridal registry" mean anything at all to you?

Patience, man.

[Pierre.Suave]

28. HAHAHAHA

:rofl:

Thank you for that laugh.

Edit: I can't wait that long.

[Redstone]

29. Not me. Like the iPod and the Palm Pilot, I know I'm SUPPOSED to want one, but

I just can't work up the desire.

Redstone

[Pierre.Suave]

31. Thats ok I guess

I had a Palm Treo, liked it, but the Sync stopped working well when I got an intel mac. Do you hvae syncing problems with your mac at all?

it is seemless with the iPhone, obviously.

[Redstone]

33. Well, no, because I don't sync any of my computers with anything. I'm kind of

old-fashioned, so I only use the cell phone to make and receive phone calls. And my music is on CDs, not an mp3 player.

(I only listen to music when I'm in the house or the car; if I'm walking or riding my bicycle, I listen to the world, not music.)

Redstone

[Pierre.Suave]

36. Ahh

that explains it. try syncing that thing with an intel mac, and you will cry for an iPhone.

[Fox Mulder]

32. Not me.

I'm going to rush out and get the Voyager for Verizon.

[texas1928]

34. Did not run out and get the original...

SO NOPE.

[Kutjara]

35. Not me. I'm not swayed by such shiny baubles.

Besides, I'm going to be paying off my new MacBook Air for the next year. Oops.

Anyway, I'll make do with my 8GB iPhone until the 3G one comes out next year.
