Yes, there will be a flood of unlocked iPhone 4 phones becoming available
as
people's 2-year contract expires and they are allegeable for the new
iPhone
as well as an official unlock from AT&T. However, keep in mind that an
unlocked iPhone 4 32 Gig will most likely be as expensive or very close to
as expensive as a 32 Gig new iPhone 5. Somebody just posted an ad for an
iPhone 4 32 Gig in very good condition and they were asking $260. $299
will
get you a brand new iPhone 5 32 Gig with warranty so unless I had a very
good reason to need an unlocked phone I'd have little difficulties to
spend
$40 more and get the latest and greatest with warranty over something
without warranty that is 2 years old. His iPhone 4 maybe in mint
condition,
however, no battery will be in mind condition after 2 years and you also
will not get all of the new iOS 6 features with an iPhone 4, SIRI alone is
worth it to get a new phone.

Sieghard

I don't think I understand the complaint here. If you are looking for more
space and you are not interested in the other features, look for a gently
used iPhone 4 or 4S. You might even be able to get one from the carrier,
but
either way look around because you will find them out there. Hey contact
APple you never know they may have some refurbished units available,
although I have no idea if they sell referred iPhones or not.
Fact is you want to play you gotta pay.

Hi,
As someone who has an 8GB iPhone 3GS and who plans to upgrade when the
option on my contract is available soon, I'm personally frustrated
that I'll probably end up needing to pay between $100-$200 just to get
more memory essentially. I do realize that the newer phones have many
newer and greater features, and this is great. But, it seems silly to
me to upgrade to a newer phone that will have the same amount of room
as my 3GS, when my only issue right now with my 3GS is my lack of storage
space.
The problem for me is compounded by the fact that both my husband and
I plan to upgrade, so whatever we pay is multiplied by two.
Just my thoughts. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to bite the bullit.
We're not planning to go any higher than 16GB at this point though,
because we don't see ourselves needing more space than that.
In Christ, Miranda

Apple to retire iPhone 3GS with low-end 8GB iPhone 4S debuting at next
week's iPhone 5 event By Raymond Wong | BGR News - Thu, Sep 6, 2012
We already know that next week's September 12th Apple (AAPL) event
will bring the announcement of the iPhone 5, but rumor has it the 8GB
iPhone 3GS will finally be retired. The Telegraph reports that sources
close to retailers say Apple will replace the entry-level iPhone 3GS
with the 8GB iPhone 4 and a new 8GB iPhone 4S to its lineup.
Essentially, the 8GB iPhone 4 will be offered free on contract as the
3GS has been, and the 8GB iPhone 4S will become a new mid-point
offering. Naturally, the new iPhone 5 will sit at the top of the totem
pole and will come in capacities of 16GB , 32GB and 64GB. It can be
argued that the 3GS has been a boon in emerging markets, especially
because Apple will continue to support it in iOS 6, but we think it's
time to let the three-year-old device go. After all, it is the only
iPhone that still doesn't support Retina display apps.
