For those live in US, you’re so lucky that you can always get the first hand-on experience for any new Apple product. The same goes for the iPhone 3G S. By now, you should know iPhone 3G S will become available on Jun 19. And, to be precise, it will go on sale in US starting at 8 a.m. (in all time zones) next Friday. Some AT&T stores will even open earlier, at 7 a.m., for those to pickup the pre-ordered iPhone 3G S. That’s really crazy!
