Yes this thread has been done before, but now that many of us already have done this once... What will you do with your old one?
I gave my old iPhone to my dad, along with my old jawbone. He loves it. I think that when the new iPhone comes out that he will be getting my 3gs.
That leaves my old 2g iPhone to become an iPod touch for my mom. She has made it clear she does not want to pay the data for it. And her iPod nano (3rd gen) Is getting very old and finicky. (Randomly skips songs, turns off on its own, ect ect.)
I would sell the iPhone 3gs, Mine is in perfect condition, has had a case on it the whole time. But honestly how much would it sell for? I'm sure Ebay will be flooded with 3G's and 3Gs's on the launch day of the new phone. Can I really expect more than $200 out of this old phone? (3gs)
Also another weird thing about me, I have kept every single cellphone I have ever owned. (Minus the two that were stolen, yeah I learned my lesson.) Its kinda cool lining up all 8 of the phone and seeing the progression over time. I would feel bad if I sold one of them lol. Unless its expected to go for a good amount of $$.
---------------------------------------
I expect more hand-me-down iphones this go around. Because there are the crazies whom have a 3gs and will get the new one.
People with the 3g will want multi tasking, and have a 2 year old 3g now, they are probably feeling the urge to buy a new one.
And for the people whom still have the Original, that thing is just getting old now. I have a feeling that the new phone may be the one to push the original owners to buy a new one. Mostly because the 2g will lack 4.0
So to many of you whom will be juggling 3 or even 4 old iPhones. Do you still have them? gave them to others in your family? Sold them? use them as iPod touches? and since you probably already have done away with your old iPhone once, will you do the same this time? (ie: if you sold it before, will you again?)
