Why wait for the iPhone 3G?
The iPhone is a piece of tech that a lot of people want to get their hands on. A lot of them did last year when it launched. It didn't really do anything that new in the phone market, but it did it with a lot of style, and with the Apple look that so many people love. This phone is certainly one to watch, but it's slow speeds and AT&T lock made it imperfect in more ways than one. At $400, it was more expensive than some 3G phones on the market, and it was a 2G device. This high price really hurt the appeal of the phone, but Apple swore that a 3G version would hit the stores as soon as possible. On July 11th, the new iPhone is set to ship to all countries that already have the iPhone and then some. This is a great opportunity to pick up the phone if you haven't already. If you are asking yourself why wait for the 3G iPhone? Then I have some answers to that question.
For starters, you are talking about a big price drop. The new phone costs only $200, a very competitive price for a 3G phone. There are higher monthly costs, but these are also highly competitive. The second point is that this new iPhone is much faster, as it can download web pages at near wi-fi speeds. This is impressive, and means that you can get all kinds of data from anywhere you have cell phone coverage. This more than justifies the price. The new iPhone also has a GPS feature, that allows you to get all kinds of positioning data and directions from wherever you are.
Finally, the new iPhone has increased storage capacity, as well as a new color choice. There are also some smaller benefits, such as a universal headphone jack, and a sleeker size. Bottom line is that you only have about a month to wait for the new iPhone, and then you'll be getting a much better device than the one you might be thinking about buying now.
