A) Online petitions are generally worthless

B) Twitter and twit-[foo] words are becoming beyond fucking annoying

C) This is no different than when Palm Treo's were hot and people who bought Treo 600's were upset that they had to pay to get a Treo 650 if they weren't eligible for an upgrade. In the US, most mobile phones are subsidized and there is a pretty basic understanding that you either pay a huge upfront fee, or signup for a two-year (or sometimes split the different with a 1-year) contract to lower the price.

It'd be nice to sign another two year contract for the subsidized price. I am interested to see the new componets and actual processor speed of the new device. I also want Nike+ so I may be willing to put down the additional money but I definitley don't want too.
