so did they upgrade the battery too? Or will all this come at a cost of a shorter battery life?

So who is actually going to upgrade from their current 3G iphone?
It seems kinda weird buying the exact same looking phone, with a few extra internal bells and whistles over the old one.

thats basically it. | Where did you read about faster wifi? I have only read the report on GSMArena.com, but they don't mention anything about faster wifi. The upgrades they list are:
-faster processor (apps loading 3-5 times faster)
-16GB/32GB models available
-3MP AF camera with Macro
-30fps VGA video recording
-voice controls
-Compass (uses its own app as well as integrated in Google Maps for proper map orientation)
-Accessibility options for spoken text
-Nike+ support
-Hardware encryption, Find My iPhone service, remote data wipe
-20% battery life improvement

not even worth it.. none of the new features are worth the cost of upgrading from a 3G imo..

ya, for the average user, theres no point in upgrading from the current 3g iphone. ive been using a 2g iphone for quite some time now and my main problem with it was the lag. i am definitely going to get myself the new 3G-S.

-20% battery life improvement | Faster processor means shit if you can't multi-task with multiple apps..
also.. do u really need 32GB worth of space for an average 15-20minute daily commute for most people?
what they should do is increase the memory size and allow better multi-tasking abilities... it sucks when it lags like crazy when ur running the GPS and listening to music at the same time.. Quote:

u'll be lucky if u can hit 1mbps with rogers/fido.
