The guys at iPhone spotted some code in the new iPhone 2.0 beta software that suggests Apple will use the Infineon 3G chipset. The code mentions "SGOLD3," which is a series of chips that Infineon produces. QUOTE S-GOLD3H supports HSDPA category 8 (7.2 Mbps), cameras of up to 5-megapixels, MPEG4/H.263 hardware acceleration and "video telephony, streaming, recording and playback." Source: Gizmodo This simply means, 3G may not be the only hardware upgrade you will be seeing in the second generation iPhone. Apple may or may not enable this function but these function are theoretically supported if that chip is used! This post has been edited by ken_wickedboy: Apr 9 2008, 10:32 PM

Those might developed for far future model btw one thing to ponder, if the S-GOLD3 is for far future model, why the reference to it is included in the beta version? (read the 3G Evidence! on ZiPhone site). yeah the BETA firmware. i dunno, hehehe... This post has been edited by LaskarCinta: Apr 10 2008, 08:04 AM

if it does come with all those new capabilities 3G, 5MP camera etc, it's sure going to be hell expensive.... Added on April 10, 2008, 4:26 pmQUOTE(tornad0 @ Apr 10 2008, 11:14 AM) sigh..i just got my iphone 8gb after long saving for the phone ... Dont be sad. It's not like you will get the 3G phone soon. And moreover, if it does come out, pricing will be a concern. If not made available locally, importers will still jack up the price This post has been edited by dARKaNGEl: Apr 10 2008, 04:26 PM
