Rumor: iPhone 8GB to be discontinued, 3G line to slide up to 32GB?

Cup of Joe RSS scuttlebutt: that Apple is finally bringing back at home iPhone activation, and will discontinue that 8GB iPhone model, bumping the high-storage back end of the line to 32GB, like the iPod Touch. Some optimistic souls even say that it will drop next week. How would the price slide for the 32GB? Groggy, snot-filled-eyed musings: would the 16GB be the new $199 entry level phone, or would the 32GB go for $399?

AppleInsider has since changed their mind on this; apparently they've been told that the "home activation" is going to be an online pre-qualification for customers to find out whether or not they can get the iPhone at the subsidized price.
