So why doesn't everyone just do that?!?!

By: Aamir

Aamir — Fri, 16 May 2008 21:33:27 +0000

I hope carphone warehouse are right.. it needs a better camera and hopefully better screen resolution.

About time we get something before the US!!!

By: Will

Will — Fri, 16 May 2008 11:31:15 +0000

I have since gone and had a chat with some guys at the carphone warehouse in London and they said that it will be available in the UK before the US as their 3G network is rubbish in comparison to ours.

They've also told me that its going to be completly slick black in colour and slightly bigger all round (i.e. bigger screen and slightly thicker/heavier) and with a better a camera (probably 3.2 mega pixles this time) which will also be able to handle video recording.

Watch this space people.

ok, i just want to say this is exactly what happened when the 16gb came out… quit your bitching plz! btw june 9th is my Bday so i am praying it does… fo my present and so it will make all u ppl mad thx

By: Aamir

Aamir — Thu, 15 May 2008 20:04:46 +0000

One major difference another blog said is that it would use an OLED screen to save battery life and that it might be 2mm thicker …. ipod touch thickness would be more ideal and practical!

Will – Apple will be announcing it on June, 9 but i dont think it will be in the UK till autumn unless u import it from the US.

Hi all,

Please can someone out there shed a little more light into what the new 3G iphone will have that the current one doesn't?

I don't have an iphone but I've had a go on one and they seem pretty sweet. I am due for an upgrade on 19/05/08 but am not sure if I should hold out for the new version of I phone. When does it come out?

I'm not fussed about 3G capabilities particularly, what I do want is a touch screen phone with a big screen and which has a decent camera. Currently, the iphone has a 2 mega pixel camera...which takes ok photos but as soon as you put them on a computer they'll look rubbish.

Will the new 3G iphone have the same size screen and a better camera or are they coming out with an iphone mini? 5 mega pixels would be great. Come on apple. Please build one for me!!!

wil there be any difference i the size of the new iphone…..i mean the tech stuff aside, will it be as thin as the ipod touch???

By: Aamir

Aamir — Mon, 05 May 2008 16:13:31 +0000

Like others I was going to get an iphone until the plans of a 3G one… But the release date of next month – i presume thats the US and not UK?.. In England the 3-3.5G network coverage is great. But i guess i’ll have to wait a few months extra for all the bugs (if any) to be fixed!!!

By: paulnic

paulnic — Sun, 04 May 2008 21:21:51 +0000

Here in the UK we have an excellent 3.5G network covering most of the country. It is run by a company called three and has a data rate of about 1.5 megs generally – Which is easily fast enough for live video. In the UK apple gave rights to another company called O2 who have a hopeless 3G network coverage. But will apple have clauses in their contracts to enable different systems to be given to other suppliers – or will new 3G phones be unlocked – which would maximise their sales and bring about real network competition?
I have an iphone on edge, and as far as data access is concerned it is pathetic when compared with my Nokia N95 on 3.5G. But it is fantastic on wifi, which gives an idea of what they will be like on 3.5G. Needs a better camera, and built-in GPS to work with google maps, and it will be a hands down winner!

Kent, with other EDGE phones you are right, but not with the Iphone.

By: Alan Friedman

Alan Friedman — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 01:35:37 +0000

Sorry, you are the one incorrect. If I am downloading a site while on EDGE, calls go to limbo land. Call Apple technical support if you don’t believe me!

By: Kent Pribbernow

Kent Pribbernow — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 02:35:31 +0000

@Alan, that is incorrect. You CAN and WILL receive phone calls while on EDGE. Incoming calls drop you out of EDGE, not the other way round.

By: Alan Friedman

Alan Friedman — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 02:32:24 +0000

I am going to swap to the Lg Voyager. First reason is that when you are browsing the web using EDGE, you cannot receive phone calls. With the 3.0 Voyager, you will not miss a call.

Also, Verizon's service is much better than ATT. 5 bars? What a joke. The only 5 bars involved with ATT are the 5 pubs their CEO goes to each night.

I'm sick of the Iphone, it is the Voyager for me.

I have the Iphone and Love it!! The day they come out with a new faster 1 I am going to buy it. End of story.

By: Alan Friedman

Alan Friedman — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 04:01:10 +0000

I currently own a iphone and edge speed is not as bad as some think. The problem is that if you are on edge and browsing web, you cannot get calls. I may switch to voyager due to this problem.

Here is a 3G question for all of all us, including myself. 3G operates at a higher freg. and goes a shorter distance. It does not travel as well through walls. My wife has a Iphone and I have a Samsung. My Samsung is 3G, but when I’m inside my office or my house it reverts to the EDGE. So is it still worth waiting for? I still want the new one, I just wished 3G went through walls better. You can buy repeaters, but they are going to cost you $$$. I read somewhere they may even come out with a 32G. The 3G reverting to the EDGE in my house does not really matter, as I have a wireless router that the Iphone will revert to instead of ATT network (data). Hopine we all see the new version in June sometime. Iphone Rocks!!

http://www.engadget.com/tag/Egprs2/

also check this out as well at ZiPhone.com Well this was found inside the latest beta. If that’s not enough for you to understand, I’ll clarify it: There is a new iPhone coming very soon. The new iPhone will have Infineon’s SGOLD3 (PMB8878) chip in it’s baseband. Google can maybe help you to get more details.

By: Frank

Frank — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 00:19:10 +0000

I too am on the fences whether to get one now or wait till the 3G release. One thing I wish someone can elaborate other than the 3G capability is what other features will it have that the current iPhone doesn’t have. I heard someone say that it might have OLED backlighting to improve battery life. I think some people are just too hung up on this 3G issue. It is not a huge deciding factor for me at least because according to the coverage map I am not in the 3G area. One of my friend has one right now and I’ve tried it and I don’t think it’s that slow(but I know this is a very subjective matter). Can someone PLEASE talk about what the next iPhone will have other than 3G???

By: Jacob

Jacob — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 21:38:20 +0000

Hey kenny, take a paperclip and straighten one edge of it. On the top of the iphone you should see a small hole next to the headphone slot, and push down. The sim card will pop up and out.

By: Kenny

Kenny — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 14:59:18 +0000

Do you know if the SIM card from the iPhone can be removed? My wife has a Samsung Blackjack that has 3G. I’d like to test out the speed in the Dallas area.

By: jay

jay — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 07:32:44 +0000

I think that the new iPhone 3G is great! however it sucks cuz I thought I was so cool to have an iphone and it was a pretty penny and now that every one knows how great they are many will just go out and buy the 3G no doubt and then prior uses are stuck in the dirt with old tech. when we had it first ….. sorry I know i sound like a braty kid but its true

By: Joel

Joel — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 15:21:06 +0000

Paul, Here in Houston, if your already an ATT Customer you can just add the data plan to the talk plan you already have. My wife has a 2.5G Iphone and its only $20 bucks a month (data).

By: Paul

Paul — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 16:02:23 +0000

the $30.00 plan that is offered at the data plan for the IPhone is already a 3g data plan. So when the new 3g IPhone comes in you will be paying the same 30.00 that users are paying for their 2.5 Edge IPhone

By: Joel

Joel — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 21:51:00 +0000

The question is, will there still be unlimited web and email for the 3G version for the additional $20.00..Or is going to be more or per kb..cause it that is the case, I would just be as happy with the current version..

By: Kent Pribbernow

Kent Pribbernow — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 12:41:18 +0000

@Brad Unless you live or work in a 3G coverage area, the short answer is no – it’s not worth it. AT&T’s 3G network build-out is weak, with availability limited to just a few major metro areas across North America. Personally, I think on the whole 3G is overhyped, at least where AT&T is concerned. Limited coverage – poor reliability. Until that changes I don’t see it as a critical feature. Now, I’m sure others here blessed to live in a 3G coverage may have a different slant, but speaking as someone who is 3G-less… I get by just fine without it.

My advice to you is to look at AT&T’s coverage map and see where you fall. If you in 3G land then wait for the next iPhone. If not, then buy the 16GB model and enjoy yourself.

By: Gianni Simpilcio

Gianni Simpilcio — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 12:31:23 +0000

I was about to buy an iPhone, too, but since I started doing research on it and found out about the projected release of the new 3G version, I can’t justify spending three for four hundred dollars on a phone that’ll be eclipsed by its successor in a mere three months. You should probably wait – given Apple’s track record, the new version will be more than worth passing up instant gratification.

By: Brad

Brad — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 19:14:27 +0000

I was going to buy the 16GB iPhone really soon but now that I hear a newer model will be coming in just 3 months, I am hesitant. Do you think it is worth waiting for a 3G oppose to just settling with the 2.5G? Thoughts?

By: Sandeep

Sandeep — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 05:19:36 +0000

Can any body please let me know what (else that speed) going to be difference 3G and current (1.1.3) iphone? Will there be any feature addition? Please mail me sandy_rockford@yahoo.com

By: Andres

Andres — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 01:49:27 +0000

Finally!!!!!!!! Ive been waiting for this for so long!!! I didnt want to buy the current iPhone because it still runs on EDGE but this is awesome news!! I dont understand why the US is so behind when it comes to 3G, for instance, Argentina is already covered with 3g since 2006, the entire country, and unlimited, anywhere in the country, high speed internet access through ur phone costs US$30 a month…The US should learn from Argentina when it comes to telecommunications…

Even if you are only a month into a contract you can still upgrade to the iPhone for $399. And if another iPhone comes out in June then you can upgrade to that one as well even though your only a few months into your contract. This only applies to iPhones though.

By: Fred

Joe, you can purchase an unlocked iPhone for the bargain price of 649 euros, and use your existing SIM card in it with no problems. BTW, don’t ask Don’s friend James, both seem racist.

By: Jim

Jim — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 20:49:32 +0000

3G will add coverage where the Edge may not reach. I would pay for that additional feature just because I live so far from civilization and can appreciate the added coverage.

eric: The new GPS function is relatively cool in condensed tower areas.

Overall, the iPhone has increased my productivity except for when someone says "Hey is that the new iPhone?" and then it becomes a toy again!

3G means that in SOME cases it’ll be much faster, and in other cases we won’t know the difference, because it will still be EDGE, depending on the progress of the AT&T roll-out in your area. Most people complaining about the lack of 3G aren’t really being practical, as the iPhone’s current 2.5G EDGE support is in some cases just as responsive as the 3G support in other phones. As Jobs noted, it will take newer applications like “tele-conferencing” to fully take advantage of the enhanced bandwidth a 3G phone would offer. Ironically, iPhone streams YouTube over EDGE just fine and streaming video is the number one application for 3G speeds right now. 3G will make it much more practical to upload videos and hi-res photos however.

By: Nato

Nato — Mon, 24 Dec 2007 07:30:05 +0000

It means that the internet will be up to 5x faster than the edge network that cingular and the iphone is using right now. I believe it is a huge step up for apple

"a new iPhone release in such a short period isn’t realistic"

I know I will not be upgrading anytime soon. Of course I lasted 4 years with a featureless Nokia (when I bought it, at the time it was the cheapest thing available… I was pissed because Verizon wanted me to pay full price to replace a newish phone I had lost). Compared to the piece of crap I had been using, my iPhone seems like heaven. Anyway, I will probably skip this upgrade and go with the next one.

By: dartholit

dartholit — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 23:56:52 +0000

I hope its not true! Cause I won’t have enough spare money to upgrade to one:( and it would kinda be a bit harsh on all the ppl who bought one of the current versions.
