Faster Apple iPhone Due Next Year Apple's caught between a rock and a hard place with the release of 3G model anytime soon. They'll face the same whining about the price cut with many early adopters buying the 2.5G model and a few months later feeling duped. But, I hope they're releasing 3G right now in Europe and US so they don't rack up a lot of 2.5G Christmas sales and the in January/February springing a 3G model. Making a 3G model available in Europe only is going to be problematic for US Christmas sales as people will defer purchases. Any type of rollout schedule will screw someone from some continent. Asia is set to roll out early next year, so even if they wait till June of next year to release 3G, many new buyers there will feel burned having bought older technology just a few months ago. This leads me to two options, either do it all now and get the pain over, or wait till next September, which is a long time, and let the early adopters have at least 3-6 months of exclusivity.
