So it exists and is being beta tested by Apple.
I'm eager to know what it looks like, how big, what capacity and what power it has. And of course, the most important one, the price tag.

At least this time around I can sit back, relax, and enjoy my Iphone 3g while waiting for a new one rather than drooling over every rumor.

Can anyone explain the numbering on this? I think I read earlier that the iPhone 3G is 1,2? Maybe I'm wrong but without understanding how Apple numbers things, this should be 3,0... hopefully the answer isn't obvious and I look dumb(er).

We're not TALKING about the iPhone nano! Don't bring this into every conversation! :confused:
We're talking about the standard, third-generation iPhone that will be released in June.
But you're right; there is no sense in it.

that's some good detective work. if macrumors and others can detect unreleased iphones out in the wild, just think how much the NSA is listening to.
