Better processor, 3mp auto-focus/touch focus camera, video recording, voice control, digital compass, data encryption and better battery.

16 GB model will be $200, the 32Gb $300 and they will keep the current 8Gb iphone for $100. nice.

Availability: in the US in 10 days, rest of the world by August. I think the unlocked version’s price will be ridiculous.

    well I still say you will be better off with a windows machine, the mac’s are still expensive.

    You’re looking for a laptop to be your main PC right? i recommend that you checkout this VAIO
    moderatly spec’d for a $1500, that’s 16.4 very important, 4gb ram, 2.4 ghz 512mb vram. and that’s a sony, you can find much cheeper options like this Samsung, let me know what you think ;)

    as for the 3gs, with the 3.0 os i’ll get all that I want. I’ll miss out on the voice dialing (never used that in my life) video recording ( still shit camera so won’t be that good and the compass which is no good for us in kuwait just yet, cause it will be used mainly for google maps. I’ll update next week when 3.0 comes out and see the unlocked phones are still not coming till August. I’ll be in Kuwait by then ;)

    The only real useful new feature is the battery life …
