I wonder what iteration of SimCity they'll be bringing to iPhone/Touch... 's a shame the iPhone is still locked down to AT&T and $50-$60 phone/data plans (though the Touch is still an option).

I imagine it will be similar to SimCity DS which was a downgraded SimCity 3 port.

AT&T is killing the iPhone in this part of NJ where their service is spotty. Verizon is the only one that has this area covered well.
