On December 28th, Wal-Mart will be selling 4GB iPhone’s for only $99 with a two year contract. This seems like a good deal to me because paying extra for hard drive space isn’t always a good move. There are plenty of other ways of getting extra storage space. For example, you can organize your music into iPhone playlists, then only sync the playlists you wish to listen to that day. Or, you could use on online storage service that will allow you to download the music you wish to listen to OTA. I think we can expect a surge in the already skyrocketing iPhone sales when this service hits.

T-Mobile G1 Android smartphone is selling better than hotcakes

T-Mobile Android G1

I am incredibly impressed with the number of T-Mobile G1’s that have been pre-ordered. The numbers are different depending on your source, but I’ve heard an accurate figure would be about 200-300 thousand G1’s pre-sold. Compared to the fact that the iPhone hit a million sales in 20 different countries, 300k is an enormous number.

Motley Fool cited a Cens.com article that said, “according to industry insiders, T-Mobile is planning to order a total of between 1.5 million and 2 million units of G1 with HTC in the near future, including 400,000 to 500,000 to be sold in the fourth quarter of this year.”

This number may be a little high, but the fact remains, the G1 is KILLING IT! This is a glorious day for smartphones folks. I am no longer concerned with the economy if this sort of news keeps up.
