I’ve got the no iPhone blues. Because I can’t get an iPhone 3G for another three months unless I want to pay $200 more than the $199 list price.
Turns out, the evil empire that is AT&T won’t sell the iPhone 3G to people like me (who don’t have an upgrade credit available until October) at $199. Nope, they want $399 for it. And frankly, I’d rather wait three months and spend that extra money to get 8 GB of extra space.
So it looks like I’ll be iPhoneless in Atlanta for another three months. No, it’s not the end of the world, but I won’t be able to email, browse, and surf the web from my phone on vacation in August from the top of a mountain. Shafted by the death star again!
If anyone knows how to get around this upgrade credit crap, drop me a line. I want the iPhone!
