According to Engadget!

    * The first thing people will notice: the 2nd gen iPhone will be about the same size and shape as the first gen.
    * It will, of course, have 3G. And proper GPS!
    * The most noticeable physical difference is back of the phone is no longer metal -- the whole thing is glossy black, from top to bottom. The volume buttons are now chrome.
    * Because it's got a little less metal to deal with, it doesn't have quite as many angular edges. The battery is (still) not removable.
    * The phone itself will be slightly thicker than the first gen device.
    * The headphone jack will no longer be recessed, and will finally be flush with the body.
    * The device itself uses roughly the same size and resolution screen as the first generation product.
    * No solid word on battery life or storage capacity.

Hoho...that means the new ihpone is only additional with 3G and GPS...and the body colour


Added on April 26, 2008, 10:36 pmThe 3G iPhone will be announced June 9, the likely date of Apple CEO Steve Jobs' keynote at the company's Worldwide Developers Conference, analysts said in research notes on Thursday.

The 3G iPhone will be the "first of an impressive wave of new products" from Apple, wrote Citi analysts Richard Gardner and Yeechang Lee. They also expect an updated Mac laptop and iPod lines. The Apple conference is scheduled for June 9-13 in San Francisco.

In addition to a 3G iPhone release in early June, the 2.5G model could have a "minor casing change" and a price drop to between US$299 and $349, compared to the current $399, wrote Shaw Wu, an analyst with American Technology Research, in a research report.

Those predictions are consistent with a February prediction Gardner made that 3G iPhones will be announced by midyear. The 3G iPhone release will help Apple meet its target of shipping 10 million iPhones in 2008, Gardner wrote at the time. Apple is confident it will sell 10 million iPhones this year, officials said during a conference call on Wednesday to discuss the company's second-quarter earnings.

Well, speaker quality is better, the standby time is longer, and the price is a very very big deal. Provided the phone is unlock-able, EVERYONE's gonna be sporting an iPhone from now on. There goes the exclusivity, whatever's left of it anyway.

means that it no need to unlocked or crack like 1st gen?

Need, of course! What I mean is provided version 2.0 can be unlocked/jailbroken without problems. Apparently, Zibri has already cracked it so we'll see. But damn, the price is so darn cheap.

I don't quite like the fact that the new pricing means every noob's gonna be sporting an iPhone without knowing what it's about (Think of the current Nokia N95 but with tons more users because of the pricing scheme).

Agree!
thats people only know to have it because cheap...but they dont know what special inside and why we all waitting the iphone because of its speacial and AMAZING OF IPHONE!

bad news guys, gizmodo reported that activation is done in store only. so if you want to buy iphone, you really needed to sign up for contract. there is no more buy first activate later kind of thing. it's much like cheap phone that come with every contract.sad

i think is only for US...maybe difference on SG or other asia country...
but if it is whole world...i rather buy the current 1...coz the price for the current sure will drop alot
