It's not half obvious you want one. I had the same thoughts as you did re 1st gen iPhone. You'll give in sooner or later, I did.
iPhone and iPhone 3G comparison shot arrives, only one can emerge victorious {Engadget}
Jun 24th 2008 4:57PM I'm sure Apple did everything they can from a design point of view to keep the aluminum rear case, but I think the loss in 3G, GPS and signal speeds were simply not worth it.
Lets hope the pictures of the Black aren't doing it justice.

iPhone 3G: everything you ever wanted to know (but were afraid to ask) {Engadget}
Jun 15th 2008 9:51PM Tell me more regarding the new speaker and mic design. Is it much louder and clearer?
Also to those people who are concerned about MMS, don't be. There will no doubt be a 3rd party app available for MMS shortly, but furthermore MMS usage is on the decline, as email is increasingly getting popular on mobile phones this will be the future for sending attachments and pictures, etc... SMS will still be around for a while yet, just as a simple means of a short message.
iPhone 3G hands-on {Engadget}
Jun 9th 2008 9:44PM When i said via software update i meant 3rd party App.
Come to think of it though, as networks become faster and internet on mobile phones become more common, MMS will be a thing of the past, leaving SMS for short messages, and email via internet for attachments and pictures.

Jun 9th 2008 9:38PM Has anyone checked out mobileme yet? www.me.com -- a dotMac update that's been long over due, but it's pretty damn cool.
As for Video Recording (3rd party app already available) and MMS, it will come via a software update. Look at the apps that were released for a locked iPhone 1.1.x -- imagine what's gonna be available via AppStore with 1.2.x

May 14th 2008 7:31AM What most people don't realise is that Vista is just the beta release for Windows 7, and every poor bastard who has purchased Vista is just a test bunny for Microsoft.
HTC Touch Diamond vs. iPhone, fight! {Engadget}
May 13th 2008 4:44PM All these touch screen phones coming to the market... It's amazing what Apple has managed to do -- even if you don't buy an iPhone, but instead some other 3" touchscreen phone, it's partly thanks to Apple.
WD Mr.Jobs, keep up the great work

- "The only component that's "Apple" enough to make a difference is
the OS."
The "only" component? The software that drives the hardware is just as important as the hardware itself -- both are useless without one another. The fact that Apple have full control over the OS instantly gives them an advantage when it comes to the "quality" of the end product.
HP & Dell don't really know for sure that this video card, and that motherboard are gonna work nicely together under Windows... Sure, the OEM manufacturer says "Windows compatible", but it's yet another component in the overall quality process they have no control over, what so ever. And when your Dell PC does encounter a video card driver issue, you call Dell and they'll tell you, "huh, it's a Windows problem, try Microsoft". While Microsoft tell you, "no, it's a driver fault. Contact the OEM manufacturer". Yep, that's what I call QUALITY customer service, ha!
PS. Funny you mention the MacBook Air, as Apple & Intel actually did work together on this project in designing the particular CPU that it uses.
