What's New With The iPhone 3G

10 Jun, 2008, 1:45 am IST | by Shayne Rana | Smartphones


The iPhone 3G will also have TypePad, a native blogging application for the iPhone, so bloggers can easily upload images and content. Associated Press will also have a native iPhone application - the "Mobile News Network." It will allow users to watch news videos as well as upload images to AP. The AppStore will now be stocked with fresh new games including Sega’s Monkey Ball, 3D racing games etc. available for download but would cost about $9.99 per game. The latest iPhone 2.0 SDK will launch in July. It’ll be free for iPhone users and cost $10 for iPod Touch users.

Sadly there still seems to be a few things that Apple missed out with the update or perhaps may incorporate as native in the next update. A major one being the Bluetooth radio that has still not been updated to support an A2DP profile.


But without dwelling on that sentiment, I’m sure most of us are on pins and needles to find out what the iPhone 3G will be worth on the shelves here in India and when it would arrive because we do know that Airtel is bringing it to us.

So stay tuned for more on that front. Just for your knowledge, the iPhone 3G 8GB will sell for $199 and the iPhone 3G 16GB for $299, which is quite a drop in pricing, so we can definitely hope for the best.
