For some reason I was remembering my brother spending like $700 for his original iPhone, whereas I waited for the iPhone 3g and spent like half. Mine was plasticky vs his solid feeling phone, but mine technically did more with the 3g network and even a compass! I was hoping this scenario would happen but maybe it's wishful thinking and incorrect memory.

the 3G and 3GS (the 3rd one) had a polycarbonate backing and came in black or white. they were also available in both 8GB or 16GB models for $500 or $550 IIRC— but you could get them severely discounted if you signed up for a wireless plan ($99/$149). the original model only came in the 8GB model for $500 with no sign-up discounts.
