If you've been cautious and waited a year for the second generation of iPhone, your patience will be rewarded. The iPhone 3G improves on the original iPhone's audio quality, offers access to a faster data network, and sports built-in GPS functionality.

It is indeed revolutionary, super-sexy and insanely easy to use. This is a phone you could give your multimedia-lovin' mum and she'd get the hang of everything quickly. And she'd appreciate the large icons too . Steve Jobs wasn't exaggerating when he said this was the best iPod Apple has ever made.

We have to say it: undeniable cool in owning one; Fantastically easy to use (and easy to see) interface, yet the iPhone still qualifies as a smartphone, with some caveats; Extremely fast and responsive; Display auto-rotates very quickly; Stable; Fantastic for music and video playback.

No user replaceable battery; Repair requires sending it off to Apple for a claimed 3 business day repair time; No MMS, no 3G; Limited Bluetooth profiles-- what about those who want to use a Stereo Bluetooth headset, Bluetooth GPS or keyboard?

I have been using the iPhone 3G ever since I waited in line and bought one a bit over two weeks ago. The big question people ask me is if it's worth the 199 USD and increase in monthly service fees. It is, but only slightly.

We've had our fair share of the first-gen iPhone but, honestly, we weren't caught in the excitement last year until we saw it live. It was only after it arrived in our office that we really appreciated its sleek design and groundbreaking user interface.

Don't fight it, you know you want one. Almost as good as Apple thinks it is.

It's an iPod, it's a phone, it's an e-mail client, it's an Internet browser, it's a gaming device, and it's much more. Yes, there is an unfathomably high level of hype around the iPhone 3G and much of the technology has been around for quite some time, but Apple have done a damn good job at paying...

But now you don't have to feel jealous over those people because the Apple iPhone has been released in Australia. Cased in a glossy black or white plastic, the iPhone 3G is a pinnacle in design. Yes, it's that classic Apple design that everyone is always talking about: simple.

I have already read the reviews of iphone at AlaTest and have to say that it is really awesome cell phone! Very cool that I'm not the owner of iphone (lol, I use Nokia N-Gage QD). So now I have the reason to buy iPhone!

With the launch of the iPhone 3G a few months back, we have decided to add our own video review to give you some idea of how the device looks and handles, especially now that several firmware updates have been introduced to make the platform a little bit more stable.

The iPhone 3G is mostly what we were hoping for in the second version of the too-popular-for-itself handset. Apple addressed call quality concerns, as well as demands for a faster Web experience via 3G and corporate email support, already making it a worthwhile upgrade for many first-gen iPhone...

Very good call quality; faster web browsing; excellent 3rd party app support; plenty of features

No video recording or native MMS; 3G drains battery fast; no expandable memory
