3G iPhone already coming this Month?
Topic: Future Products
The fact that the current iPhone is still marked as unavailable on the online Apple Store spurs rumors that the 3G iPhone comes sooner than expected.
MacRumors picked up a rumor again from April that Apple might be actually announcing a completely new portable device at the WWDC 08 in June and therefore release the 3G iPhone already in May.

iPhone unavailable in online Apple Store
Topic: Mobile Phones
The online Apple store has currently no iPhones in stock. Both the 8GB and 16GB iPhone are marked as "Currently Unavailable".
This could also just be a store glitch, but we also already learned that week that O2 has run out of iPhones in the UK.
It is suspected that this shortage already heralds the 3G iPhone, but I still think that Apple will continue to offer the normal iPhone for a while. Not everybody gets 3G coverage.
