It has not taken the iPhone long to take the cellular market by storm. The original iPhone was credited for being very ingenious, but it also had several speed bumps along the way. Upon its release date, the public was lined up outside AT&T and Apple stores looking to grab one of the first phones. The price was about $600 which many people thought was a lot to pay for a phone. The early buyers gladly paid the price. Problems with the battery and other features had these same early adopters on hold with Apple tech support for hours.

Contrary to popular belief, the iPhone 3G does not have three gigabytes of memory. It refers to the 3G data network that the phone uses for Internet access. This means that it is able to connect at faster speeds to the network. This allows people to use the internet and other features up to twice as fast as the old iPhone. The price for the new iPhone 3G is also a lot more agreeable than the original version. The cheapest version is being offered at $199 with the 16 gig iPhone offered at $299. This has opened the door for many more people being able to afford the smart-phone.

The iPhone 3G has a stunning user interface. A simple touch can unlock a number of features. You don’t use a stylus or another device to navigate which makes it quicker to get to where you want. There isn’t even a keyboard on the phone, but instead you get a virtual keyboard on the screen. You can email, send pictures, or browse the web extremely fast regardless of where you’re at. The phone even operates as a video iPod. You can store all your songs and videos on the phone and watch them or listen to them at will. With all of these cool features, the best new feature is the GPS capability on the iPhone 3G.

The iPhone provides a unique cellular experience. The phone triangulates your position and gives you the ability to find where you’re at and find directions. The phone integrates with Google Maps and can find your location within a matter of seconds. A map is brought up and your location is represented by a blue dot on the screen.

With a myriad of uses for the iPhone and its revolutionary GPS tracking system, it is the phone of choice for many people. If you’re looking for a new phone or are eligible for an upgrade, you should strongly consider checking out the new iPhone 3G.
