  • Do not merge I think that while the event is current and more details are becoming available rapidly, the page should stay as a separate section. I also think that the iPhone 3G page should be separate, but this could be worked on at a later date. --Scott (talk) 19:50, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Merge This page should redirect to the iPhone article, as the iPhone 3G article does. Expand the iPhone article to include information on the iPhone 3G S. 72.192.22.3 (talk) 19:28, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
I think we should just leave it as a separate page while the launch is current, and then merge it in to the main page. Since there are rapid developments, it's best to have a separate page. --Scott (talk) 19:33, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Merge Why isn't this page included in the iPhone page? The 3G is part of the iPhone page, why should the iPhone 3GS be separate? Dual64bit (talk) 19:42, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Merge It's just that simple. Bentoman (talk) 19:44, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Do not merge Do not merge unless something can be done on the main iPhone article. Webbyboy (talk) 20:00, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Merge Almost all coverage will be duplicate, such as the interface, history, sales, and some of the hardware. Keeping everything together allows us to highlight the (few) differences instead of them getting lost in identical details. Scott has a point, though. In the short term (say, until the keynote is posted), we should keep it here.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 20:08, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Do not merge People will be searching for the iPhone 3GS and want to easily find information. It is very, very current right now. Maybe merge at a -much- later time, but for now, keep them separate. MegaZega93 (talk) 20:26, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Merge per much of above. 3G already redirects to iPhone, there's no reason this shouldn't - there's no significant difference between the first generation iPhone and the 3GS. Bsimmons666 (talk) 21:24, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Merge per much of above. 3G already redirects to iPhone, there's no reason this shouldn't - there's no significant difference between the first iPhone 3G and the new 3GS. However I really think the page should have separate sections for the 3 models giving breakdowns on the improvements, alterations and so forth that happened on each one (1st model > 3G model > 3G S model), as well as outlining timeframes when certain things happened in a timeline somehow (model release dates, OS update dates, announcement of release dates – like 3G S being first mentioned and OS 3.0 second mentioned, both at WWDC on Mon.8.Jun.2009).
