What will be the difference between the iphone and iphone 3g?

Q. i am looking into buying the iphone 3g, but what are the differences between the old one and the new one.

also i have been looking into zibris blog and i couldnt find any answers weather or not it could be jailbroken or unlocked.

please answer both questions not just one

A. There are a many differences between the original iPhone and the iPhone 3G. Some were released at the keynote address on June 9, but some are yet to be announced.

What we know: The new iPhone is thinner at the edges and is slightly thicker. The back side is now a solid black or white (8 GB - Black, 16 GB - Black or white). The new iPhone has 3G capabilities, which can triple internet browsing speeds (Depending on location). It now has GPS, which can locate your exact location and give turn by turn directions. It can be used with exchange and other corporate internet servers, and it will have a app store for 3rd party applications to be sold. The headphone jack is now flush which allows you to use any standard headphone plug. The new iPhone starts at $199 and the old one started at $399.

What we do not know: Will it have a better battery? Steve Jobbs said that it will have improved audio, but what does that mean? Will text messaging be included in the $30 per month data plan for iPhone 3G?

You might be able to "Jailbreak" if by jailbreak you mean add applications not made by apple, however would be pointless because the iPhone 3G will allow 3rd party apps anyway.

You WONT be able to unlock your phone because all iPhones will have to purchased and activated at and AT&T store or Apple store. You can no longer activate via iTunes. You could always pay the early termination fee and cancel your contract with AT&T then MAYBE be able to unlock.

Hope this helps - Brandon

How far ahead of the iphone 3g release was information released on the phone?
Q. The iphone 3g was released in june of 2008 if I recall right... I'm curious as to how far ahead of that did apple let people know what exactly was coming on the new phone?
Just curious with all the rumors flying bout this coming june for when apple might release info.

A. Well if you get very technical/detailed when Steve announced the original iPhone he did say that they were going to make a 3G version, although it was just in passing at the time.

I believe the iPhone 3G rumors started around September/October prior to its official announcement the following January.

How much does an iPhone 3G cost per month with unlimited data and text messaging on a family plan?
Q. I'm currently on a family plan. I'm interested in the iPhone 3G now because Apple introduced the iPhone 3GS and the original iPhone 3G is only $99 now. How much does it cost per month with unlimited data and text messaging? I'm on a family plan. Oh! and I'm currently not eligable for an upgrade, but can I just sign up for another 2 years and get the iPhone 3G for the $99?

A. I am currently on a family plan with myself having the iphone 3g.

It is through At&t, a 1400 minute plan. There are four phones, the other three phones just being your average upgraded flip phone or slider, nothing with extra cost. Everyone has unlimited texting. The total monthly bill is $175

for my iphone, the data plan is $30, the texting comes with the family, $30 divided by four, so like $7.5, and I believe I was just a $9.99 ad on to the original family plan. so to add the iphone 3g to the plan I am an extra around $48 (a month)
