Watch the iPhone Activation & Sync video on Apple.com:
http://www.apple.com/iphone/usingiphone/activation.html
After the video’s host selects all his playlists, Music, Vidos, Podcasts, etc and Syncs his phone he shows the Used and Available Space on the iPhone which shows 80GB of iPhone storage space. The host states, “This bar at the bottom [of iTunes] shows you how much room you have left on you iPhone…”
Is this is a simple mistake or is there an 80GB iPhone lurking about deep inside Apple?
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Readers “Npalamidis,” “Fred Mertz,” and “Josh” for the heads up.]
i was watching it and i saw the same thing..80 gb thats cool
@ Apple Worker
I’d love to see the ad for that one:
You can now hold:
30 Songs
50 Photos
1 TV Show
.3 Movies
And it even makes phone calls.
ChrissyOne did!
The plan didn’t match the options listed either. Why did he select 1500 SMS for 20 dollars and 900 minutes
I wonder if there is a hidden feature in the iPhone that allows one to connect a iPod to it for additional storage.

Apple is in fact introducing a 40G and a 80G iPhone! I think they forgot to take that out…but now that cat is out of the bag. Just wait and see…you’ll see that Apple will announce today or tomorrow.
I don’t think it was a typo, otherwise, only the capacity would read 74.40G while the rest of the numbers would NOT add to 74.40 G BUT THEY DO!!! It’s understandable to make one error but to make the “video, audio, other, and free space” capacities all add up to 74.40G….I don’t think so!
Maybe it’s a surprise and the iPhones will be 40 and 80 gigs when they come out. That would be so awesome!!
“Maybe it’s a surprise . . .”
And maybe it has ZFS, GPS, the latest 3G, 3D video iChat and tricorder functions!
(As long as we’re fantasizing!)
Didn’t Samsung just announce a 64GB Flash-based Solid State Drive? Hmmm.
@alansky
Yup, I noticed that as well. I think that includes the 4 icons at the bottom, namely the four main apps.
Before the sync the numbers look correct (though small and harder to read).
OMFG?!
Did any of u even watch that film?
He is comparing the iPhone to the 80GB iPod, when showing u how to sync movies. If u look at the top it still says 8GB iPhone with 1.0 software. Nothing special at all!!!
The iPhone syndrome sure as hell has hit hard this year!
It was a simple editing mistake. The development iPhones have an 80 gig hard drive in them, but they are not the same as the production machines. It is nice to know that someday we may actually have 80 GB iPhones, but I doubt that it will happen on the first generation.
Alanski: i thought about that too but then you’re forgetting about Phone/Mail/Safari/iPod .. the bottom 4 which makes … *drumroll* 16.
“40 and 80 gigs”
Super nice dream, but that would directly end any sale of any current iPod out there. That would be cannabalism suicide and end a product, not add a product.
The stock price currently just shows the fickleness and radical expectations of the PC sheep type investors out there with no faith.
80GB iPhone would be perfect! I’d buy one and never use the phone.
9:55 Pacific – Downloaded another copy of the video, same numbers.
Georgy Porgy,it’s only called cannibalism if the new product has a lower contribution margin than the replaced product. I don’t think we have enough information to definitively state that iPhone has a lower contribution margin than iPod. Calling it “cannabalism suicide” is overstating the case. By the way, it’s cannibalism… are you confusing cannibals with cannabis?
Yeah, right. Lets see how intelligent this blog post is. Apple Inc. The people who bring us the iPhone. The ones who researched and built the damn thing right under our noses without our ever knowing anything about it. They come along now, just three days before the launch and commit a sophmoric mistake of putting an iPhone with an 80 gig HD into the demo so we all can cream our pants.
NOT!
Get a life!
Mmmmm… cannabis.
I see the regular plans now, but what about WIFI?
Do your order that through ATT?
To get a T-mobile Hotspot account costs a fortune.
Anyone have the skinny on this?
You don’t ‘order’ WiFi. It’s a capability of the phone, and it’s your option to find an open network.
Maybe there is more storage on an idisk which is why you need to have an apple ID.
Well there are slim 32Gb SSD’s now & 65Gb SSD’s ffrom Samsung also Sandisk & other’s I saw something on 80Gb SSD, but forgot where!

Sorry kids, no bonus round!
