What about data/file transfer ala iBluetooth function/feature? Didn't see it or I missed it among all the technical jargon which I am not familiar with?

dis was because of pressure from evry side regardin the 3g. so apple jus released the same iphone with 3g added in and sum minor modifications.. if they were to launch a new one dis summer, its surely not gonna be a minor add on such as 3g. mayb..jus mayb d new iphone might be releasin next year with the 3.0 OS taking centre stage dis summer. some countries like msia jus released their iphone 3g, i dun tink apple wud wanna jeopardize the sales. even if maxis were slow, iphone sales are stil high n with d upcomin 3.0, im sure sales wil improve. in a nutshell, iphone 2g -> iphone 3g bcoz 3g was d basic minimum requirements for a smartphone and a necessity to compete. iphone 3g -> iphone hd not dat necessary as 3.0 covers up for the old hardware. pls debate constructively. rclxms.gif

I think you have valid points there. Definitely plausible.

I did post that Maxis being such an astute business entity, would not bring in the iPhone at this time when there are strong rumours that the new model will probably be launched come middle of this year. It could well be that they were informed that those are mere rumours and that is why they went ahead. So, we might see just an 'upgraded' iPhone this June/July.

In any event, all these are second guesses and we will know for sure when that time comes.

The new OS will be launched in the 2nd week of June but not the new iPhone. Apple is waiting for Steve to do it probably end of June (fingers crossed).

Hey, man, I am still patient, with my words at least.

But, as you have philosophized, help will be offered to those who deserve. Cheers.

For everyone's digestion. I was skeptical and did not believe until after the just concluded WWDC. But of course, it's entirely up to you.

I went for a COD for a set of Bodyguardz on Sunday and the lovely lady(reseller) told me that the physical phone will not change. She knows because all merchants of 'official' casings were told to deplete their stock by next year as it would be then that Apple will announce a 'new' iPhone. It looks like what the lady told me cannot be scoffed at given what came out of this WWDC.

Could I say in response to your statement that the price of a luxury car, say, a Merc, is like buying a bungalow, perhaps even 2, so is it really worth paying such sums for a car? You tell me.

Yes, your phone will remain unlocked but your jailbreak contents and apps will be gone. You can choose to restore or just update it right away.
You're the one who needs to get it right.

iPhone 2G (mostly locked units): If jailbreak-ed, contents or apps will be erased and your phone is locked.

iPhone 3G (unofficially unlocked units): If jailbreak-ed, contents or apps will be erased and your phone is locked.

iPhone 3G (officially unlocked units): If jailbreak-ed, contents or apps will be erased but your phone remains unlocked.

Restore is the only option.
No, you can update it right away. Officially unlocked phones are safe, jailbreak-ed iPhone is not cause it will revert your phone back to locked unit.


Jailbreak phones are safe as well, yellowsn0w ones are not.
However, jailbreak ones need to wait for the release of new jailbreaking tools for 3.0, and if its an unlocked phone, it will stay that way till kingdom comes.

@Mike3300
Let me just ask you based on your original answer rebutted by Hanxz....what if my jailbroken iPhone is an officially unlocked unit? According to your statement highlighted above, you said it is not safe and my phone will lock. And that is incorrect which is what Hanxz is pointing out.

Your subsequent clarification actually reaffirms what Hanxz said as when he said yellowsn0w ones, he means un-officially unlocked units.

There you are, guys, again, as I have stated many times in this forum, it is the usage of the language that sometimes misleads us and unwittingly we remain adamant.
