iDay is just around the corner, the i-Hype machine keeps on rolling. Blog buzz a-side, consumers are pissed off at the new data rates in the US(AT&T) and Canada(Rogers). The Advertising machine is in full gear too! Okay the iPhone 3G is a modest upgade to the 1.0 vesion and 2.0's GSM to EDGE update is really the core value here. The rest is mostly software upgrades an Apple unlocking the software development vault to allow third party application development.
When you get up this Friday July 11th, don't bother running out to your local AT&T or Rogers Wireless shop expecting to get a new 3G hand-set. At least US Customers can sit at home and wait for the "we'll be back soon sticky" to come off the Apple Store and make a mad click attempt a securing a new iPhone. Canadian iPhone Stock reports approx 20 iphones per store.
UPDATE: Rogers has announced a $30 6GB Data Plan bowing to Consumer pressure. -

If you have $200 + $1000 plus dollars to drop this year you migh be camping on you're milk crate at you local retailer.. the iPhone is "YES" a cool phone, but it's just a phone.. i think it would be a great x-mas gift. If you can find one.
Invisible Shield by Zagg.com is an easy to apply scratch protector. It doesn't hamper the use of the touch screen, like other bulky cases do.
