iPhone 3GS

The much speculated release of iPhone for the year 2009 at the WWDC was a great relief for all the people including me who were talking about it from days together.
The iPhone 3G which needed a renovation was done in grand style by apple releasing the iPhone 3Gs and the 3.0 OS which i will be discussing in the next post:

The specifications of the New Speed machine are:

-Video Camera: The much needed video camera facility is finally into the iPhone but not what everyone expected a second camera in the front which is not included, the camera is going to be a good 3-megapixel camera.

-The things which are justifying the name are 2.1x faster to launch Messages, 2.4x to load SimCity, 3.6x faster loading of Exel, 2.9x faster loadind of a large website. .

-The 3Gs supports a good 7.2Mbps HSPDA, which was given only by Sprint.

- The camera has also got a Autofocus which is a welcome feature as we face a lot of problem audjusting the phone to get a good focus.

- Video capture can be included into Apps due to the presence of Video Api.

- Digital Compass is also availlable for the adventurous people out there.

- iTunes backups are encrypted.

- Along with the increase in the Speed of the Phone there is a welcome increase in the Battery life which is increased by now up to
9 hours of internet surfing,
10 hours of video,
30 hours of audio,
12 hours of 2g talk-time,
