Confirmation of June 9th 3G iPhone Launch?
Gizmodo claims to have received confirmation from "sources close to the 3G iPhone launch" that the 3G-capable iPhone will indeed be introduced at Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference.
The news comes as no surprise with the avalanche of evidence that has been suggesting the same. Gizmodo, however, pinpoints June 18th at the specific launch day for Spain, and expects world wide availability shortly after the June 9th WWDC launch.
They also suggest that the next iPhone will be offered with more traditional discounts and incentives rather then the fixed price point Apple had been offering with the original iPhone. No specific details have been leaked, though there have been rumors that even AT&T might offer a subsidy on the upcoming 3G iPhone.

Makes a lot of sense for 9th June. All the "evidence" so far has pointed at it. Let;s just hope the product gets somewhere near the hype we're currently experiencing!

Not really a surprise, but I hope AT&T gives a subsidy on it. I'm not dishing out another $600 less than a year later. 3G isn't that great.

Completely expected, but none the less good news. Will be eagerly awaiting 9th June to see what exactly they've got to offer :)

I hope I can get a nice discount with an original iPhone trade-in. It's not likely, but would be VERY nice.

Agreed. No way I'm paying $600 again (unless I can get some decent money selling mine ;) )

I just want to buy an iPhone and use it "legally" without jailbreaking it.

Still it`s hard to believe how the hell did Apple screw up this bad. iPhone 3G after June 9th???? That means more than a month of zero iphone sales. They have never done something like this with any of their other products. I still cant digest it....:confused:
