iPhone 3G, Are You Excited?


So Apple either made a zillion fanboys cream their pants today, or underwhelmed a hell of a lot of would-be fanboys. Either way today at WWDC, Apple unveiled the most anticipated product of the year. The 2nd generation iPhone may look the same, but its what's under the hood that counts (isn't it always though) and that's where things really start to stand out. Let's start with the new shall we: Tri band HSPA (the 3G in iPhone 3G) internal GPS, support for the App store and support for MS Exchange services. The rest is the same stuff we've come to love from the iPhone: quad band GSM, GPRS, EDGE, WiFi, Bluetooth (still no A2DP!!) 2MP camera and that glorious 3.5 inch 480 by 320 touchscreen. 8GB in that fashionable black that's all the rage or 16GB in black or a lovely white. Starting July 11th you too can sell your soul to AT&T for 2 years to get your hipster groove on. $199 for the 8gig, $299 for the 16 gig, and for all you unlockers out there...this one is only in-store, no online purchasing. For more pretty pictures and the sales pitch by Apple, hit the link and wonder like me...'that's it?'.

iphone schmiphone...while the rubber people in the studded belts and skinny jeans are swept off their feet by viral video and white ear buds, let the crackberry addicts of the world sync their BB Bold to their iTunes library and revel in not having to wipe their screens every 5 minutes.
