The IPhone 3GS

The IPhone 3GS is the next companion to the IPhone line up. To many people the IPhone has changed the way people think of their phones. Here are my thoughts on the new IPhone and it's specs.







My thoughts:



First of all I would love to have the IPhone. Ever since the first IPhone came out I have been greatly impressed with the newer software and hardware they have come out with. I own an IPod Touch 2G and love it but would still love to have the IPhone.







With the IPhone 3GS that was announced on June 8 at WWDC I was a little let down. This is because I was really hoping to see a new design or just little change on the outside but none was done. The only thing that was changed on the hardware was the camera which went from a 2 megapixel to a 3 megapixel but other than that nothing new. There were many things inside of the device that were changed though. These are what add the S at the end of the name now. The s stands for speed. The biggest part of the new IPhone. Apple is claiming that the IPhone 3GS will now be able to load a web page in half the time that it would take an IPhone 3G. My over all though on the new IPhone 3GS is that if you already have the IPhone 3G I see no need to upgrade.







The Specs:



The specs inside of the IPhone 3G have changed to make the new IPhone 3GS. As I said earlier there is now a 3 megapixel camera inside. It still has the same amazing 3.5 inch touch screen on the front. The battery has been upgraded as well. You can now have up to 12 hours of talk time on 2G and up to 5 hours on 3G. The stand by time is still 300 hours. The ram inside the device was also updated. Along with that the hard drive was upgraded. You can now get either a black or white IPhone with either a 16 gigabyte hard drive or a 32 gigabyte hard drive. The software it will be running is IPhone O.S 3.0. IPhone OS 3.0 will also be available for older IPhone models and IPod Touches on June 15. The IPhone 3GS will have many new features. One of these new features is that it will now be able to take video. The device will also now have speech command. Apple's spotlight search engine on all their Macs will now be integrated into the IPhone. Another feature that will be available with the new IPhone is the ability to tether. Those are just a few of the many new features that will be available on the new IPhone 3GS. Which will be released on June 19.
