got a 16gb one for 249!! I had the best in store rep ever, she helped me out so much get this phone for the right price! Even over edge the browsing is pretty quick and the build quality is just as good as the first. The plastic back feels quality not cheap

maybe it was the first day then yea
but they always make a dent when it's first released
the thing is it doesn't go steady for the rest of the year
we'll see what happens this time around especially after the $30 promo thing is done

you guys just look at it by numbers but here's how to really analyze the situation:
This morning Apple press released the fact that the one millionth iPhone 3G was sold on Sunday. One million, hmm. This is a pretty big number indeed and it certainly is quite an amazing feat. If we stop to think for a moment, was this really an accomplishment that Apple should be bragging about? According to Apple dictator Steve Jobs, it took 74 days to sell the first million units when the gen1 iPhone was released so clearly the iPhone 3G is selling faster. About a year ago however, Apple and AT&T combined to push 700,000 first generation iPhones during its premier weekend. Oh by the way, the original iPhone was launched in the US only. Also if you recall, last year the iPhone was released at 6:00 pm as opposed to the iPhone 3G which was made available at 8:00 am this past Friday. Let’s look at the reported numbers side by side:

Anyone know a good car charger + dock for the iphone. I dont want it to have an FM transmitter since I will be using my aux input on my stereo.
Looking for something like this but without the FM transmitter, and needs to connect directly to the car charger, I dont want a suction cup for the windshield.
Please let me know.

considering we sell more devices in a quarter than they do in a year, we don't need to be pulling anything out of anywhere
we don't need all the media hype that Apple does. We have the rich people wrapped around our fingers.
And how often do you hear BB in the news anyway besides stock prices? Rarely.
