    Maybe this'll shut those people up who are insistent that absolutely no one in the world needs a 16gb iPhone.
    Or will they just move on to slating the 32gb iPhone?

    It's about time.
    Most iPhone users need at least a 32gb iPhone.
    There is increasingly less storage available as iOS installs get larger.

    I'm using my second 16gb iPhone, always a pain keeping adequate free storage.
    It does force one to spend time tidying up.
