3G iPhone Just Right Around The Corner

Can you believe that the iPhone isn’t even a year old yet? The iPhone came out on June 29th of 2007, and about a year later, the next generation iPhone is right around the corner; the 3G iPhone. The reason that the iPhone will be called 3G is because the current generation iPhone does not have the availability to join AT&T’s 3G connection.

The current iPhone is on AT&T’s 2.5G network, and by switching to 3G the iPhone will be much more powerful, and have more features. This includes better service, faster internet connection, and much more. 3G also allows to have video calls, but there has been no confirmation on this feature yet.

One feature that I want to talk about in particular is the wireless internet. I am not talking about in your home, being connected to your airport. I am talking about when you are on the road, and you are browsing the web. For those that already have the iPhone, I am sure you are surprised on how fast it is, I believe it is almost as fast as dial up. The 3G iPhone will be much, much faster as some people are saying.

Other than the iPhone connecting to the 3G network, there will not be many new features. You are still going to have the same capacity, the same OS, and same look. Some rumors are saying you will be able to record video, send and receive pictures, and that the whole phone will be a glossy black.

Now, usually when products like this are coming, there is usually a delay because of the demand for the product. So far, this does not seem to be the case for Apple. Apple is reporting that they are actually ahead of schedule, which means they should be on track to release the 3G iPhone sometime this summer.

The iPhone hasn’t even been out for a year yet, and Apple is already beginning to make it better. It’s like I alway say, there are two types of phones you can buy: There is the iPhone, then there is everything else! No phone can compete with the iPhone, they just can’t. It is truly the greatest phone out there, there is no flaw in it.
