When Carphone Warehouse and O2 cut the price of the 8GB iPhone last month, it was seen as a move to shift stock before the iPhone’s expected Second Coming this summer. And it worked. The 8GB model swiftly sold out.

But if there’s a shortage, you can be sure that Apple would keep remaining units for itself: The rumor mill would go into overdrive if Apple itself ran out of phones.
