Do you:
1) Sell it (Where to whom?)
2) keep it (as a backup, ipod use, other use)
3) give it to a friend / relative?
4) Throw it in a drawer?

As with all my older Apple gear I tend to put it to other uses......in the case of iPhones they become ideal media centres, working in conjunction with my Apple TV I take them back to the stock apps, add a few, like Remote and any apps to access my NAS drive, etc then pack out the remaining space with movies and music. It gives them new life and they end up as a very fancy looking home entertainment system.

you could always do what ^^ said and use it with your current accessories and media centers that way you dont have to rush out and get an adapter... you could go on craigslist/amazon and find someone who wants to buy it (i wouldnt recommend ebay because they take a % of whatever you sell it for)... you could give it away... there are old phone donation boxes at best buy and similar places who will donate it to soldiers and victims of tragedies...
theres a lot of options
i sell mine.

I'm on the fence with selling it, or keeping it. We have 5 total iP4's on the family plan so having a spare might not be a bad idea.
in my case the wife will get my White 32gb ip4, but that is only if i ever go for either the 4s or 5.
tbh thus far nothing is tempting me to part with the hard earned wedge.
SIRI? from those i speak to seems more of a novelty factor than being used much,
i don't really care about more processor speed as i don't play games on it.
i do wonder what the cost if 4g will eventually be, i'm already on t-mobile/EE sim only, not into downloading films etc. so what i have is fine as most times i use my home or clients WiFi.
i'm sure others are waiting even sweating cravenly to Que up at Apple Store Etc. in massive lines
if i see a s/h white Ip4s 64gb for the right price - then maybe, just maybe i'd be tempted, but not by the ip5
- as yet.
i usually sell mine but this time instead i gave my 4s to my son.

When I get my new iPhone 5, I plan to keep it since it's my best friend, but I can't keep paying the $85/month AT&T bill. I will have the service turned-off so exactly which features of the phone can be used without service? Can I continue using my same phone number and will the same Apps work as in my turned-off phone or must I sign-up again? I am confused.
Typically I sell one to buy the next but this time I just boxed up my 4S and put it in the drawer when I upgraded to the 5!

I keep them. I had two 4, a white and black and a black 4s. All 16g. When a water logged my 4s in the washer I went to Verizon. Found out they bought them and walked out with a new black 5 64g and 200$ gift card. But now I have no back ups. At least I keep the boxes. They look cool with all them together
