One strategy that I haven't heard anyone comment on yet, is that Apple could be releasing the 3G iPhone this week, as some rumors point to, and saving June and the WWDC for perhaps a Mac Touch portable. It's not beyond the realm of possibility. Here's what I'm getting at: with everyone's economic stimulus checks coming out, the timing would be ripe for folks to spend their $600 on a new shiny iPhone. Not bad thinking if that's their goal.
It sure would be a good time. The only evidence directly suggesting otherwise is the AT&T vacation memo, which says late June. Can't figure out why they'd pick those dates if the iPhone is coming out in mid-May.
