iphone_3g.jpg The wait for the 3G iPhone is finally over. Those who thought of it to be just another rumor have a reason to believe Steve Jobs now. The 3G browsing has made the phone's browsing experience worth a shot. To prove this point Steve showed a demonstration in which the National Geographic homepage loaded in just 5 seconds while the same page took 18 seconds on the original iPhone. It has improvements in battery life and GPS, since it uses A-GPS. The new phone is also lighter than the previous rendition and also a bit thicker. There's also an iPhone App Store for iPhone owners to look forward to.
