This company will buy your old phone now and let you mail it in on October 1st. Reason?
They, and others believe the new model of iPhone will be released September 21st, and they know that people don't want to do without there phones.
The CNET article

There is also on article there that suggest this will happen due to Verizon blocking out Vacation time from September 21 until Septenber 31. Got to have staff on hand to hold down the stores.
This company is gonna give you $276 for your ment condition 4S 16GB the articale suggest now, and if you wait the price will drop to $100 after the release.
I believe I'll hold out and see what is going to be offered by Apple. For me accessibility will be the thing necessary to improve, or what reason will I have to upgrade?
I'd like to see some better battery life, and call quality as well to match the Galaxy S3.
My opinion is the new iPhone will have all the S3 features and be simular. My reason for this is Samsung and Apple stay in court fighting over pattens.
Okay, you have my 5 cents. Lol

Well firstly, there are only 30 days in September. Secondly, sounds like the iPhone is going to be one heck of a phone. I certainly can't wait for it to come out.

Didn't mean to type 31 But maybe I'll reread that article myself about Verizon's blocking out vacation time. .

Here is the Verizon article and it does say 30th not 31st.

i am satisfied with the features on the iPhone 4s, so I won't be in a hurry to upgrade right away. I'll wait to find out what the new iPhone has to offer.

Now Amazon has bitten the upgrade bug. Read about it and decide what your best option will be?
