I notice that the old 3GS phone are selling for about $250 on Ebay and Craigslist......as the new phone will cost me $199 it seems like a no brainer?
I should buy two and sell the other iPhone4 for the seeming going price of $5- 600!

The ones on CL and Ebay, etc, are without a contract. Not a bad deal if you lose yours and do not have insurance. ATT will rip you a new one if you have to buy them at the non-discounted price (its high, but I cannot remember what). Its a no brainer if you do not have an existing contract only.
My 3G iphone is maybe 5 months old? Theoretically, I have to wait 1.5 more years to get the 4G which by then will be a 6G, and it will still cost $199. It pisses me off that I cannot walk in and exchange for a newer phone. I would not mind paying the $199... but Nooooooo, its gonna be $600...

Why in the world did you buy a 2 year old 3G model ? 
Or did you mean the 3GS ?
I'm using my replaced 3G as a iTouch plus (does more). |

3GS. I don't keep up with all the model numbers. I got the best that was available at the time.

IPhone 4 is not 4G. It is 3G just like the last 2. It is primarily an OS upgrade, with a few minor HW "upgrades" (like the shorting out of the antenna by touching the phone) as well. I am just not a fan of the IPhone. When it came out, no question it was the best for apps, but I just don't like the way things are put together on it. I prefer the Android platform. Both have their pluses and Minuses, and it all comes down to user preference.

Jamo,
Come on now, I may make it inconvenient for some, but ruining is a little harsh don't you think? 
I should have mentioned, that I think Apple may have wanted to make the I phone 4 a 4G phone, but AT&T is not ready with a 4G network yet. Sprint is the only one, and it is a different technology than everyone else is going to for 4G. Sprint is using Wi-Max (ClearWire, Time Warner Cable, Cox Communications are also using Wi-Max). Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile will be using LTE. LTE has much more capabilities than Wi-Max, but it is much much more expensive to upgrade.
