The current iPhone 3G will continue to be available at

  • 16GB iPhone 3G – $99 with contract

So, the $99 iPhone rumor was correct after all. It was a little disappointing to not find the front facing camera but the rest of the features are enough to make me go out and buy a 32GB iPhone 3GS! How about you?

If you have been holding off on buying a iPhone so far, I’d say iPhone 3GS makes a pretty good case for buying one.
