3G Apple iPhone Coming This June or Not.

Can it be concluded that there will be a release of an Apple iPhone 3G in June? This is one of the most widely spread secret in the world of IT. The hardware specifications for VodaPhone in italy confirmed it.

What is 3g and why wasn’t the Apple iPhone a 3G in the initial stage?

The meaning of 3G is “3rd Generation”. These types of devices can use one of two data protocols of competing cellular phones,and allows them to download at speeds of about half what a DSL line gives for downloads, and almost equal speeds for uploading. There are only assumptions as to whether or not the 3.5 generation protocol HSDPA will be picked up by Apple iPhone 3G.

However, that speculation is based on a lot of information that’s coming from Europe, where HSDPA is the dominant standard. Both VodaPhone and StarOn use HSDPA networks, and press releases announcing a 3G Apple iPhone have been around on the Internet since April. Walter Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal stated, in a round robin press conference that “A 3G Apple iPhone is guaranteed to happen in the next three months” back in April.

What you want to know about the Apple iPhone 3G is this: Though Apple industrial designs are closely kept secrets; it is known that this 3G configuration will be much slimmer (about 3 mm), and have a more rapid data access of course.

So where’s Apple’s over-hyped secrecy? There was a signing of non-disclosure agreements during the launching of the iPhone last year, before journalist could see the hardware. So one can only imagine if Mossberg spoke of its 3G connectivity, what other cool features does Apple have in store that he is unable to speak off?

Speculation on that has ranged from the 3G Apple iPhone having built in GPS capabilities, to new software from the Software Development Kit released last February, to graphic acceleration. (Apple has publicly released announcements about integrating with Microsoft Exchange-driven “push” email, the major competitive advantage that Research In Motion’s Blackberry has.)

It’s already been announced that there will be an 8MB and 16MB iPhone released this summer - some hardware connoisseurs, noting the success of the MacBook Air, that this may be a red herring, and the amount of Flash RAM may be higher in the 3G Apple iPhone.

Of all things that are going to change on thing is sure to remain untouched and that is the battery life, given the fact that it is thinner. May be of some let down for the Apple iPhone devotees; the 3G Apple iPhone is thinner and has a more powerful radio, this will inevitably prevent space for greater battery capacity and may even prove to be shorter if the radio is feature that is frequently used.
