3G iPhone on the Way?

mooseman93 wrote to point out Forbes is suggesting that if you haven't purchased an iPhone yet, you may want to wait just a little bit longer. Supposedly the next generation of iPhone will offer some substantial upgrades, including 3G capabilities. "To be sure, a 3G iPhone likely won't pop up over the next several weeks. The Unofficial Apple Weblog reported this week that Apple is hiring a television production firm in preparation for a high-profile late February announcement. That event, however, will likely detail the widely anticipated release of a software developer's kit for Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch. But the wait can't drag on much longer. AT&T is building out its high-speed wireless network as quickly as it can, announcing Wednesday that it will expand its 3G wireless broadband service to more than 80 additional cities by the end of the year for a total of roughly 350 markets."

    More Apple advertising?... could you keep me informed about the SATA drives that Dell is offering too?

    The iPhone invention/launch was news-worthy because it was a new "innovative" product, its network transfering speed and/or type is a service feature, something you'l find out when you go to buy an iPhone.

    Even better - buy a phone NOW that does 3G.

    Of course, it's understandable that people might not know about them, since all we ever hear about is the iphone...
