Think its crystal ball time to be honest. Obviously the 3GS has only been released this year, so i would guess at least another 6 months from now before any real details come through about a 4th gen.

The 3GS is 'relatively' new, so I'd be surprised if there will be a new one for at least a year. They're also going to get a further influx of sales as the exclusive contract expires with O2, so there's no real need to make something new and exciting.

I'd expect their next launch to be an iPhone nano, or just an iPhone with more storage, but I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for it.

(willing to be proved wrong however if any Apple geeks know any different!)

I don't use the phone that often and hardly text
So guess I use £20 payg pcm atm ?
Hence a one off payment (when the £500 price drops)
Would a contract work out any use in the long run ?

If you want to use the Internet then PAYGs can work out much more expensive than contract. I very much doubt the price will come down much.

you wouldnt put an iphone on the ground mate, you'd scratch the back of it, or even worse the screen
