Posted by Kothapally Arun On 10:55 PM

Apple's new iPhone shown at WWDC, the iPhone 3GS looks like a corrected version of iPhone 3G but with its own freshness. The "S" stands for speed and this is quite evident from the fact that data speeds are upped to 7.2Mbps HSDPA when compared to former 3.6Mbps HSDPA in iPhone 3G. It has a 3MP intelligent camera with tap-to-autofocus and auto white balance, it now supports 30fps VGA video recording,editing and sharing features on the go.

The maps and built-in compass in iPhone 3G S finds your location quickly through the benediction of good GPS, Wi-Fi, and cellular towers. The other good features are getting directions and live traffic updates.

The cut copy and paste options are pretty much in the normal fashion. The other cool thing is that you may shake the phone if you erred or would like to undo a certain action.
Internet tethering on iPhone(don’t need a Wi-Fi hotspot) to surf the web from your computer. Share your 3G connection on your iPhone with your Mac notebook or PC laptop and connect to the Internet anywhere. When your iPhone is tethered, you can still send and receive data or make phone calls.

It has battery that offers 5 hours of 3G talk time and 9 hours of Wi-Fi internet use. You may use your voice to make calls, play music just by saying the contact name or the track name. The VoiceOver enhances the accessibility options with the the world’s first gesture-based screen reader.
