The 16GB model of iPhone 3G comes in black, and, more importantly, white - that makes the iPhone 3G qualify as a shiny white gadget = )
Noticeable differences and improvements from the previous iPhone are:
- 3G speed (Apple claims that it's twice as fast as the previous iPhone)
- Built-in GPS so you can now track your position along a route
- The earphone jack is no longer recessed, which means you don’t need an adapter to use the earphone of your choice.
- Better battery performance
The new iPhones will include iPhone 2.0 software, which will also be available to the old iPhones. The new software includes the following features:
- Addition input methods including Japanese, Korean, and Chinese (traditional and simplified).
- Ability to view PowerPoint and iWork files
- Compatibility with Microsoft Exchange
The iPhone 3G comes in 8GB and 16GB and starts at $199. It will be available in selected countries on July 11.
I held out on getting an iPhone, but now with 3G and the price is simply too tempting. I will probably get mine from Tokyo, so stay tuned for iPhone news in Tokyo and impressions.
