Though we can’t speak much without having the device in hand, there is a lot that we can sense. Using the 1st Gen iPhone for such a long period helps me visualize the changes that are needed. Apple has taken the feedback on its original iPhone quite seriously.
Looks: Great finishing. Apple always steals the show with the looks. To make up for the added weight of the GPS, 3G etc etc, the back of the new iPhone is plastic instead of Aluminum. Result the weight of the new iPhone is 2gms less than the original one.
3G: The obvious and much needed upgrade to the original EDGE iPhone. Add to that the Apple claims of faster loading compared to the Nokia N95 and the Treo.
GPS: A-GPS, this is good. This would drain the battery but then to handle that there is a upgraded battery from Apple. And with all this added the device still manages to remain as slim as the original iPhone.
iPhone 2.0: The 2.0 firmware is awesome. Checkout the cool upcoming games and apps. Many of these would be free!!
Camera: The same camera! This is bad. So wait untill 2009 for the 3rd Gen iPhones. lol
Battery: Wow, Now this is probably the best part. 5hrs 3G internet surfing, 24Hrs Mp3 playback, 7 hrs video playback, 5hrs 3G talktime, 10hrs 2G talk-time.
MobileMe subscription provides seamless integration of all your data between your PC/Mac and the iPhone.
Also not to forget Photo geotagging, iWork supports Ms Office (Word, Excel & Powerpoint), Contacts search and more.
