Default iPhone 2 Info!

11:39 am With GPS, the iPhone can do tracking. A pulsating dot is moving
across the Google map as a car drives down Lombard street.

11:38 am Data from cell towers, WiFi networks, and now -- GPS.

11:38 am GPS support now integrated into the iPhone.

11:38 am 3G has great battery life on iPhone. 300 hours of standby, 2G
talk-time now has 10 hours (as opposed to 5), 5 hours of 3G talk-time
(most phones only have 3 hour 3G talk time), 5 to 6 hours of high-speed
browsing, 7 hours of video, 24 hours of audio.

11:37 am Now demoing an email download. The email attachment took 5
seconds to download on 3G and 18 seconds on EDGE. 3 seconds on WiFi.

11:36 am 2.8X faster. Approaching WiFi speeds (WiFi scored 17 seconds).
When compared to other 3G phones (Nokia N95 and Treo 750), the iPhone is
36% faster -- and better looking.

11:35 am How does the iPhone 3G tackle the challenges? 3G = faster data
downloads, perfect for Safari and Mail. Comparing download speeds
between 3G and EDGE. 3G finished in 21 seconds. EDGE finished in 59
seconds.

11:33 am Apple has learned so much with the first iPhone. They have
taken everything they've learned and more and created the iPhone 3G.
Even thinner, black plastic back, solid metal buttons, same gorgeous
display, camera, flush headphone jack, and dramatically improved audio.

11:32 am Introducing the iPhone 3G.
