was just reading the updates from macrumorslive.com about the new 3G iPhone....key features

Even thinner, black plastic back, solid metal buttons, same gorgeous display, camera, flush headphone jack, and dramatically improved audio.

2.8X faster. Approaching WiFi speeds (WiFi scored 17 seconds). When compared to other 3G phones (Nokia N95 and Treo 750), the iPhone is 36% faster -- and better looking.

3G has great battery life on iPhone. 300 hours of standby, 2G talk-time now has 10 hours (as opposed to 5), 5 hours of 3G talk-time (most phones only have 3 hour 3G talk time), 5 to 6 hours of high-speed browsing, 7 hours of video, 24 hours of audio.

GPS support now integrated into the iPhone.

Now on to the final challenge -- affordability. Started at $599 for an 8GB iPhone, now $399. The iPhone 3G 8GB will sell for... $199.

$299 for the 16GB -- a white version of this size will be available too.

Also, exchange and push mail etc available. Microsoft office apps also available+ its 3g is faster than the N95 and the treo.

For the price, nuff guy out there get weh di duck get. WTF nokia goin do now? How will it justify its still $700 N95 vs the $199 iPhone which now has more up on it than b4 (and yeah, the price is a MAJOR factor to nuff people).

I was goin sell my current iPhone to get the new one, but at $199, I'll keep em both!!

Also, I currently have access to the itunes store through paypal. I have bought music, and I rented a movie one night to see the quality, and for the money, the movie is justified. I would go as far as to recommend the appletv. No late fees, plus movies release same day as dvd and at $3.99 for a new movie ($280 JA) Carib also get weh some boy girl get last night.

Oh yea, What I'm also looking forward to is viewing MS files; word, powerpoint, exel, etc.
