EverythingiCafe —
... BGR is reporting that AT&T may get an upgrade to their base level iPhone, and bring in a new 8GB iPhone 3GS for $99. This would replace the current, entry level $99 8GB 3G just in time for the holidays.

AT&T May be Prepping $99 iPhone 3GS
Unwired View —
... holidays can’t come soon enough. My concern is, though, that only AT&T is rumored to be making the leap at this point. Are other iPhone carriers planning on releasing the 8 GB version of the 3GS as well?
Ultimately my dream would be for the 16 GB 3GS to drop in price to $99, and have a 64 GB iPhone 3GS come out just before the holidays at the $299 price point. But I’ll settle for an 8 GB in 3GS flavor for now.

My opinion: It’s about time. The holidays can not come soon enough. My concern is, if only AT & T that the rumor is the leap at this point. Are there other iPhone carriers planning to release the 8 GB version of 3GS, too?
Ultimately, my dream would be for the 16 GB 3GS to fall in the price range up to $ 99, and a 64 GB iPhone 3GS come shortly before the holidays to the $ 299 price. But I’ll settle for an 8-GB 3GS taste for now.
