More Evidence of 8GB iPhone 3gS.

[appleguy123]

Past Rumors of an 8GB iPhone 3gS appear to have new evidence to their credibility. A German forum user received an iPhone 3gS and posted This Thread {Google Translation} containing a picture of the label. As most of us know there is a Rumor of a January 26th event. Apple has preformed intermittent updates to the iPhone, in early 2008 by bumping the capacity of the original iPhone to 16gb. They iPhone 3g was introduced in June in 8 and 16GB capacities. SO do you think an 8GB iPhone 3gS will be introduced on the 26th?

Update A German retailer is advertising an 8GB iPhone 3gS. It is however likely that the logo is misprinted as the picture of the iPhone is clearly an iPhone 3g. IT is also worth noting that AT&T sells refurbished 16gb iPhone 3gS's for only $49 that is a $100 drop than earlier in the year.

I call bogus, iPhone labels do not have a version number.

Totally fake. Model number and part number are for an iPhone 3G.

I think they will lower the price on the 16 GB 3GS and eliminate the 3G.

Remember Apple has both cut prices and raised capacities in between cycles.

The image you posted is a doctored 3G label. It has the 3G part number and model code, for Pete's sake. Give up already.

The UPC also isn't valid. Scan the UPC with the iPhone RedLaser app right off the screen, and you get nothing.

Scan a REAL iPhone UPC, and at the very least you get "product of Apple, Inc." if not the complete product info.

FAKE.

Only if the UPC is in the RedLaser database. I agree that this is fake, but that's not proof.

To be honest I also believe this as a false. I was just covering the story that was surfacing.
