Big upgrade from a 3Gs, decent enough from a 4, certainly not worth it if you have a 4s....

Nothing overly exciting, but enough to make me jump.

Pete has it correct. We will get our phones factory unlocked (the wife's 4 and my 4s) and then sell them to pay for most of the upgrade, if not in its entirety.

As long as you can get the subsidized price and you don't mind the contract extension, you can pretty much do the same every time. I'm more or less still using the same money I used for the original iPhone.
