It also depends on what your typical phone turnover rate is. I know some people who get a new phone every year. For me I tend to buy top of the line and then hang on to stuff for years. My home office Mac is 8 years old and was one of those fancy dual 1.25Ghz G4s, which cost me a bit back then, but now it's still perfectly usable with OSX 10.5 and a boatload of RAM. So if it were me I'd go for the best I can afford now and then let the cost average out over a longer period of time.

Hi,

I recommend waiting and getting an iPhone 4.  I don't think it makes much sense 
to purchase something running last years technology unless you do so because of 
financial restraints.  The iPhone 4 has double the  RAM of a 3gs, a 38% faster 
processor, and a better battery.  I think those are good enough reasons to go 
for the iPhone 4.

Hi list,

As the iphone 4 is now in the market, I'm wondering which to buy. The 3gs has 
become tremendously cheap these days, and the iphone 4 is 5 weeks waiting over 
here in the Netherlands.

Are there any good reasons for a blindy to wait for the iphone 4, or can I just 
get myself a 3gs without sacrificing much functionality? Some of you listers 
will know, so I'm looking forward to hearing from you about this. Is a 4 better 
for us than a 3gs?
