Almost there. Just playing with the new iPhone 3G S before heading to dinner and was curious as to Mobile Safari’s standards compliance.

This thing kicks ass!

Ready for iPhone 3GS

Apple’s servers were overloaded as usual today from all the WWDC announcements, so it took me a few tries to reserve a new iPhone. But I finally got through, so I’ll be picking one up 19 June at the SoHo store probably around lunchtime. The confirmation e-mail said that it would be available anytime during store hours, and that I should be on the lookout for concierge staff wearing orange t-shirts to help me checkout. Maybe I should take a half day or something.

This was really good timing for me since I partially shorted out my 1st gen iPhone from the rain in the Five Boro Bike Ride last month and have only been using it as an iPod.

Also, my predictions came true for the Snow Leopard upgrade priced at $29. I was betting that it was going to be made free, excluding S+H, but this is close to it.
