This year AT&T was allowing online pre-orders for the new iPhone, unlike last year. And it seems that however many 3G S units the company had in stock for the June 19 launch have now been snapped up.  Hardly surprising given the new phone changes everything you thought a phone was for.  Aside from nifty apps like a real-live compass and video capture and editing, the pocket miracle now responds to voice control.  It's also managed to changed the dynamics of more than one business model.  Click the second link to see how. Vrooom, vroom.
