Apple iphone 3G S. Faster than fast

After lots of speculation (and some really silly guesses) we can now reveal that the ‘S’ in the new Apple iPhone 3G S stands for Speed. And seeing as how Apple are telling us that everything is now running at least 2.1 times faster (twice as fast just wasn’t good enough, obviously) we can understand why. The 600mhz processor and 256 RAM might not sound all that impressive (with some mobile phones already boasting processor’s of up to 1GB), but Apple has always managed to produce computers that far outperform what the numbers suggest, and the Apple iPhone 3G S does just that.

Applications launch in an instant, web pages render rapidly, email attachments can be downloaded and viewed in a flash. And there’s even been some whispers that the new 3D graphics chip can deliver a gaming experience to beat the PSP’s. Other features include:

• 3-megapixel autofocus camera (with a cool focus tap feature)
• Video recording (and on-screen editing)
• Voice Control
• Digital compass
• Cut, Copy & Paste
• Voice Memos
• MMS
• Spotlight Search
• Landscape keyboard

A few people might be disappointed to learn that there’s been no change in the physical design of the Apple iPhone 3G S. You can choose between white and black (as well as between 16GB and 32GB) but that’s it. Some thought it might get smaller, others were hoping for a matte rather than gloss finish, but the only change is invisible: an oleophobic coating has been added to the screen. This sounds a little scary but all it means is the screen will be more sticky-fingerprint resistant than ever before. Still doesn’t mean we’ll ever let a kid get a hold of ours though. There’s an Iphone 3G S review here. And if you think you can stand the smug presenter, check out this video that shows off some of those features. Just look at those in-game graphics!
