Jim Karpen 6.13.09

Macworld has a great article titled "iPhone 3G S: What you need to know." It highlights the significant new features: speed, better gaming experience, camera, voice control, etc. And it answers commonly asked questions. Best of all, the article has a list of features unique to the iPhone 3G S and discusses some of them. These are features you'll get with the new phone that you won't have even if you upgrade your older iPhone with the new iPhone 3.0 software. See the list after the break:

  • The faster processor, more RAM, and new video circuitry
  • Improved battery life
  • The improved camera hardware
  • Video recording, trimming, and sharing
  • The digital compass
  • Voice Control
