I am planning on buying the apple iphone 8gb, the 3G, but the thing is, i don't want the plan, and just the phone. How much will this cost me, and where can i buy it for a reasonable price besides ebay? also, how much is warranty?

No, your original iPhone is not obsolete. In early July Software Update 2.0 will be available to the original iPhone. The update will include: The Apps Store, Enterprise support with remote wipe, iWork support, MS Office support, MobileMe support (the new .mac), mass email move and delete, contacts search, more languages, and a scientific calculator when in landscape orientation.

Here's what you won't have: You won't get data service at twice the speed, but at a cost of twice the battery drain and an extra $10 per month and you'll have to pay another $5 a month to retain 200 SMS messages. You won't have an Assisted-GPS built-in showing your exact position and live tracking, but with the original at least you have a general location finder. You won't have improved audio. You won't have geo tagging on your photos. You won't have the improved camera software with improved images. You won't have a missing dock. Since there are several...
