Default Rumor: $99 8GB iPhone 3GS for Christmas

Read on Gizmodo this morning. Sorry I can't post the link. Here's what it said:

It's hearsay at this point, but Boy Genius Report's sources claim the 8GB 3G will be swapped with a 3GS. They've had a decent-enough record with rumors lately, and it makes sense against the $99 Droid Eris. We'll see.

That would be pretty sweet. I've been waiting on upping to the 3GS once I get a contract renewal in January. The price drop would be a plus.

Apple has already said no new hardware for the rest of the year, so I don't think we'll see a 3GS w/ a 8GB, but I've been wrong before.

Incorrect.. Apple mere said their holiday lineup was set. That doesn't mean everything is out yet.

There is no truth to it yet, but it makes sense to release a $99 "new" phone for the holidays. As for the mini version I don't know what this person was talking about. I read Verizon may get a smaller CDMA Apple device around Q3 2010 but that's just speculation at this point.
