So the announcement of the infamous iPhone 3G was finally confirmed last week making it’s debut at the WWDC 2008. I will not lie…I was hoping that the new iPhone 3G would offer more than just a faster phone and GPS. Needless to say, I was disappointed and other than 3G…pretty much yawned at the new features. Most of the new features are already available for people who took the plunge and hacked their phones. I dropped a line to my boy, MacDork…who agreed it was much ado about nothing. I certainly like the new aesthetics…an area where Apple always seems to make huge strides.
Gizmodo did a nice FAQ regarding the iPhone…check it out.
I’m definitely let down by it, and the keynote, in general.
What makes me happy, however, is the impending iPhone 2.0 software. It’s nice that the upgrade will be available to original iPhone users, letting me buy lots of other nice apps (like OmniFocus for the iPhone)
Apps was definitely more exciting than the phone.
Yeah =/
