I know most of us will go but the iPhone at a cingular or AT&T corporate store, but a good alternative is Apple the store, I asked my friend who is the manager of the palm beach gardens Apple store in the mall and he said even if your contract doesn't expire, everybody has to pay the 499 or 599 4-8gb models. So I know I am getting the 8gb no matter what. I feel sad for the people who live in the big cities like miami, LA, new york, you guys are going to have a lesser chance of getting a phone due to big crowds.
