We've just received an official statement from AT&T regarding the presence of an "iPhone Black"
on its model selector earlier today: "The reference to 'iPhone Black' was simply a temporary placeholder used over the weekend for a scheduled catalog update. It was meant to temporarily distinguish the various iPhone models-4GB, 8GB and 16GB-but was never reassigned. We're changing the site now." Makes total sense, right? Three models of iPhone, two placeholders: iPhone and iPhone Black. You know, because "Black" has so much to do with memory capacity, and is easier to remember than 4, 8, or 16GB -- never mind the fact that we have
good intel suggesting that the next-gen device is glossy black.
Also, AT&T, we know those cigarettes are yours, so you can stop telling us you were "just carrying them for a friend." We're not stupid, you know.

the 3g iphone is coming out, everyone knows it, but at&t and apple get sooooo much more coverage based on the rumors flying around, more than if they anounced it!!
riiiiiight...
...back and to the left
4GB????
5:45PM EST and it's still there, but that's not the most curious bit. OK, well, it is, but humor me here. I had the BlackJack II selected as my device and I just logged in to see the iPhone Black (which, like I mentioned, is still listed) and my device was gone. I then tried to select my i617 and it's not in the list! Huh?!!?!
Seems that trolls must be employed at AT&T Corporate, given that official statements, such as that, is how they justify their existence. Silly little worker-bees.
my ex that worked at att wireless told me that a new iphone is gonna come on july 12
funny when u look back at this and see that iphone black was obviously the iphone 3g. oh and lawrence's ex was pretty damn close.
