3G iPhone Officially Confirmed

As of writing this post, Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple is announcing the launch of their latest product - the iPhone 3G. Features announced so far include, of course, 3G, inbuilt GPS, a flush headphone jack as opposed to the recessed one in the original iPhone, improved battery life, a gorgeous black plastic black and a slimmer profile at the edges. The 3.5" screen and camera remain the same - a bit of disappointment for users looking for an upgrade from the 2 MP camera found on the original iPhone. Apple also claims the iPhone 3G will be more affordable and available in a larger number of countries, besides sporting enterprise support and support for third-party applications. More details as the presentation goes on, see the live update.

Price check: the prices have been officially declared, it will be $199 for the 8GB black version, while the 16GB version will set you back by $399, and will be in white(!)
