The Apple iPhone 3G - the jewel in O2's crown!

Due out on July 11th is a mobile phone that looks set to become the shining light of O2's product range. But can it really be as good as people say? C an the Apple iPhone 3G really beat all other mobile phones?
Apple iPhone 3G - why is it so good?
At the start of June, a product was released that made lovers of mobile phones and Apple lovers especially, go mad with excitement. It'd been nearly a year since the first iPhone had been released, and now, the newest version had just been announced. It's set to be released, on O2, in July. But how does this new Apple iPhone 3G differ from other mobile phones? Well, first thing... it has an amazing 3.5 inch touchscreen, meaning that all the slick features and powerful functions are available, quite literally, at your fingertips. And what control you have, as the Apple iPhone 3G is only the second device in the history of mobile phones to be built on top of the amazingly easy to use Apple OS-X. Only one other mobile phone can say that, and that was the first iPhone.
You may recall that there was a certain amount of criticism levelled at the first iPhone. Other mobile phones can outclass it, they said, other mobile phones do more than it. And at the time, in spite of the beautiful interface, they were right. Other mobile phones COULD outclass the iPhone, although, that's going to be harder to do with the Apple iPhone 3G, coming soon on O2. The big thing that the first iPhone didn't have was 3G, and that was where other, more established mobile phones beat it. That's not a problem now, however, because the Apple iPhone 3G, as the name implies, joins the world of mobile phones that HAVE got 3G. And boy is it fast, as it uses HSDPA, allowing you to connect to the web at up to 3Mbps. On top of that, you get GPS, and we should all know how useful and invaluable that is!
Apple iPhone 3G - is this the phone of the future?
Once we get through the hype, is the Apple iPhone 3G really the new hope for mobile phones? Is it ACTUALLY that important? I say it is, but maybe not in the way you think...
You see, the Apple iPhone 3G is, just like its ancestor, flawed. It's not perfect, and whilst that applies to most mobile phones, with the Apple iPhone 3G, it's being called the ultimate phone. However, if you pick a feature at random, the camera, you'll realise that in that specific field it's average at best, and at worst, total rubbish. In the present world of mobile phones with cameras built in, that's unforgivable. With that in mind, if it's flawed, why is the Apple iPhone 3G so important? Simple, it's because the Apple iPhone 3G, coming soon on O2, has provoked other mobile phones to improve their offerings. In other words, manufacturers like Nokia and Sony Ericsson are really fighting to make up ground, and take the fight to this usurper. That's why it's important: the Apple iPhone 3G is making manufacturers make better mobile phones, and hey, that's got to be a good thing for us, hasn't it!
