iPhone Stuff

The iPhone 3GS has never been acquirable in anything another than 16 and 32GB power models, leaving the 8GB position to be filled with its senior brother the iPhone 3G.

And that was meet dustlike for a while. The difficulty today is that we’re meet months absent from a recent iPhone, and then what module we have? Three models of iPhone on the market? Each with slightly assorted capabilities? Catering to slightly assorted capacities? That’s meet not the Apple way.

If this alarming individual was ownership you up at night, rest easy, because programme from aggregation of an innoxious packaging mixup hints at the upcoming availability of an 8GB iPhone 3GS. An eagle-eyed client in FRG posted on the apfeltalk.de communicating commission that his refurbished 8GB iPhone 3G arrived fair a SKU packaging adjudge describing something the same, exclusive assorted — an 8GB iPhone 3GS.

The customer, famous as .david on the Apfeltalk.de communication board, had this to feature (translation by Google via Gizmodo):

Seems to be an iPhone 3G (back and no compass, FW) 3.0.1 on it. However, the packaging is understandably fashioned for an iPhone 3G [S] 8GB. Ordered was a refurbished 3G iPhone 8GB.

Vote: who hit a refurbished iPhone 3G in a recent packaging of the prepacked iPhone 3G [S] 8GB, because the improvement is understandably new. Which understandably indicates that the understanding of the iPhone 3G [S] 8GB directly imminent.

.david’s nous is prefabricated up, he’s destined this effectuation an 8GB iPhone 3GS is on the way. Another possibility, of course, is that this is a typo. But I run to concord with my European neighbor. Apple’s incoming writing to the iPhone is not likewise farther away, and it makes significance to found the 3GS feature-set as the de-facto for each and every iPhones agitated forward. Because, y’know, that magnetometer makes a difference!

What’s your verify on this? Obvious indicator of things to come, or whatever story technicians’ black mis-type?
