Most of the improvements are in the operating system. So current iPhone 3G users will be able to take all the battery life/speed enhancements from that.
MMS is also coming to the existing iPhone via the software update.
It will all happen on the 17th June.
So what has the new iPhone got that the current one hasn't?
A 3MP camera over a 2MP camera? Big wow. To be honest even 5MP cameraphones are sh*te when placed next to a small digital camera so I will stick with my camera anyway. Same goes for video. Not something I use on a phone - and if I did want to video things I would again use a digital camera which are far better and a similar size.
What else has the new iPhone 3GS got? An in-built magnetometer. sh*t - great - just what I wanted!
I was a bit worried when I heard the new phone was coming out because I haven't long had my iPhone but now - to be honest - I'm fairly pleased that I will be getting most of the upgraded features for free next week and won't have to shell out extra for the new version.
Just my opinion mind.
(Oh and it's still better than a Blackberry by the way. Court, I thought you had learned your lesson after having an Xbox 360?)
