The current phone has not been out long enough! I was one of the original and got mine on the first day and as long as they are giving us updates am a happy camper. Christmas was a great success for the iPhone and can you imagine what they would think if a new one comes out now.
I don't know for sure what people would think, but I can hazard a guess. People who don't have an iPhone but want one might think something like, "Whoopee! A new, better iPhone! I'm so glad I waited!" Whereas people who have purchased an iPhone might think, "Dang! A new, better iPhone! I wish I had waited!" Then there are the people that must have the latest and greatest gadget at all times. I imagine they might think something like this: "Whoopee! A new, better iPhone! Time to sell the old one on eBay!"

You and I have wildly different definitions of the word "mistake". I generally view price drops as good things. Besides, didn't they offer some kind of compensation to the early adopters? I don't remember what form that took, but I thought they at least tried to make it right.

Uh... how would a new phone turn away customers? I understand that it could upset people who just purchased an iPhone, but I really can't see how it would upset people that haven't bought one yet.
I won't buy one until it has at least 16GB AND Flash...
As much as I hate Flash I'm beginning to see this as a requirement. The problem is Flash east memory and CPU cycles so I think an upgrade is in order just to support Flash. I'd like ot see Apple double memory and the number of processors in the iPhone. That is right 256 Meg and SMP processing.
It is very possilbe and we will likely see low power processors available with dual cores in the very near future.

I have never said what you are quoting me for on your post. It might be a mistake.
Just go back an read if you are interested and you see what I am talking about.

The love/hate dynamic between the two of you across all the threads on these forums is strangely mysterious...

I just did that to see would you be pissed, and you are
Being prejudice is not funny. Specially for the group of folks you are attacking.
Dude, just time out.
That proves my point of how immature you are.
Chill my son.
If you are good I'll give you a little extra pocket money this week
