Well guys and gals... I paid those prices for both the first gen and the 3G and I admit... best money I have ever spent and entertainment! For the people that don't want to pay again... this is technology we are talking about here... yes it sucks to keep going with the flow but if you want all the cool new things ya got to go with it...
The iPhone is the coolest phone ever and it more than part of my life...... I am so looking forward to the new model... I don't care if they come out with one every year for the rest of my life I will pay to get it because I want to go with the flow as the flow only gets better and better as time goes on!

Or maybe trade in value excludes the contract price, and only takes into account for the un-subsidized prices? (IE: $599, and $699 for the current gen iPhones).
They way I see it, you would still have to extend your contract in order to purchase another brand new phone. So they're giving you back exactly what you paid for the subsidized phone, and offering you the same subsidized price on another phone (minus contract update). In essence, swapping your iPhone, and giving you a different phone in exchange.
By my count that would make the new iPhones still $199, and $299.
Who knows, maybe I'm giving AT&T too much credit. I don't know if they will/would be so courteous to their customers.

The 32gb iPhone is needed BAD! I have almost 100gb of music, this could be filled so easily.

So, if the article is legit, and it is showing up on T-Mobile, could it be possible that it would come to the U.S. for T-Mobile?

Currently T-Mobile don't distribute the iPhone right? Most likely not. Apple doesn't practice having two exclusive distributors in a country.

If there was two then it wouldn't be very exclusive

Yeah sadly the case, I'm waiting to find either my friends or family to be renewing their plan with Singtel (Singapore's exclusive iPhone distributor) so I can get the iPhone. That's if they don't decide to get the iPhone. Lol. Paying off the shelves prices for me would be a big bomb. ):

No they do not distribute it. That is why I was asking, since it showed up on a foreign T-Mobile website.

LOL, I did manage to grab a classic ipod 160gb just before they were scrapped. Funny when the lady at Best Buy is all "Oops you accidentally grabbed an old one, let me go get you a new one." Just harder to be selective when you have so much music, but I mainly use this in the gym so I constantly change my music to keep from getting bored, or just listen to Pandora.

In the first post, it showed the 32 GB Iphone showing up on T-Mobile Austria's website. That is what led me to believe that it may come HERE to the U.S.

It is on T-Mob in Austria, Croatia, Czech, Slovakia, Germany, Hungry, Macedonia, Montenegro and Holland.
Each country has it's own arrangements, it's not on T here in the UK and is unlikely to change in the near future.
With AT&T's exclusive deal I don't believe it will be on T-Mob in the USA any time soon.He who asks a question looks foolish for 5 minutes. He who doesn't ask a question remains foolish forever.

I believe I read somewhere before saying you if bought an original iPhone after so and so that you got a free swap for a 3G...wonder if this will still work, or just be able to extend your contract?
