The announced price variance of 3G iPhone around the world keeps iPhone lovers wondering for sure.

Now with the phone really coming there are many possibilities popping up.

At the WWDC, Steve Jobs showed that 3G is almost as fast as Wi-Fi and twice as fast as the current network. The world of 3G connectivity is expected to change the way we interact with technology--how we shop, how we share information, and in general how we use handheld devices for.

Still, what's definitely coming this summer is a battle of the touchscreen phones. Apple, through marketing if nothing Read More...
O2 offering a free 3G upgrade for existing iPhone users in UK made news recently. iPhone enthusiasts in Germany now have a great deal too: they can get a brand new 3G iPhone for free.
T-Mobile will sell the 8 GB 3G for 1 Euro. There is a contract to go with it of course: 69 Euros per month. You could choose to pay less than that per month, but in that case the iPhone costs more upfront.
Ok, so it’s not really free. Many people have analyzed the “reduced” iPhone 3G price, and pointed out that we’ll in fact be paying more. But Read More...
Just as the the dust started settling after the release of iPhone 3G, I happened to catch up with some of my old pals from Sprint and RIM. the iPhone release had to come up, of course.

So let’s take a moment to savor the rumors that we have so far, shall we?
3G iPhone is going to be 22% thinner than the present iPhone

It is almost certain that the iPhone will be released in Japan by NTT DoCoMo Inc, the leading mobile service provider in Japan. No dates have been confirmed yet.
