30 best iphone photo apps image

Is Apple planning on updating the existing customers that have the iPhone to the new 3G's capabilities or are we so to say screwed?
Answer
No, your original iPhone is not obsolete. In early July Software Update 2.0 will be available to the original iPhone. The update will include: The Apps Store, Enterprise support with remote wipe, iWork support, MS Office support, MobileMe support (the new .mac), mass email move and delete, contacts search, more languages, and a scientific calculator when in landscape orientation.
Here's what you won't have: You won't get data service at twice the speed, but at a cost of twice the battery drain and an extra $10 per month and you'll have to pay another $5 a month to retain 200 SMS messages. You won't have an Assisted-GPS built-in showing your exact position and live tracking, but with the original at least you have a general location finder. You won't have improved audio. You won't have geo tagging on your photos. You won't have the improved camera software with improved images. You won't have a missing dock. Since there are several different docks available now, I guess it's a personal choice which one, but the docks probably range between $30 to $50. Lastly, in order to allow better reception for GPS, the metal back was changed to plastic. I prefer the metal.
In order to get 3G and/or GPS on the original iPhone, it would have to be taken apart and have a 3G radio chip and GPS added. Too much trouble and too expensive.
Personally I am still satisfied with my original iPhone. I can wait for the next version to come out. I also think the original iPhone will retain their value for awhile because T-Mobile has not launched a 3G network yet and the iPhone 3G won't operate on the the same frequencies. AT&T uses 1900 and 2100 MHz, while T-Mobile uses 1700 and 2100 MHz. So unless those T-Mobile subscribers want an iPhone with GPS, they won't be able to get 3G service. It's also yet to be determined if the iPhone 3G can be unlocked or if it can, how long it will take.
By the way, the iPhone 3G is a bit thicker in the center with tapered edges and just a tad lighter due to the plastic back.

Why should I buy an iTouch 4 instead of the 2nd generation?
LoveMeOrHa
I need a real tech geek to sell me on this. I can get the iTouch 2nd generation at best buy for, like, 180. But, I figured I might as well spend the extra 30 for the brand new 4th generation. HOWEVER, i want to make sure it's a 30 bucks well spent. So, tell me what makes the 4th generation so special. 'Cause honestly, I just want something to listen to music on.
Thank you!

of course! get the fourth one. It has a built in video camera in the front and the back of it so you can facetime (video chat) with anybody else who has an itouch 4 or an iphone 4 and take photos and videos. Also, if you buy a second generation it wont have the newest iOS (newest software installed) onto it. The iOS on the itouch 4 can put a background on which the ipod 2nd gen. can't do. Also, it has a higher retina display (more HD) than the 2nd gen. In addition it also has a built in microphone and speaker in it so you don't have to wear that obnoxious headphones with a mic to go on skype. Internally, the 8 GB configuration of the iPod touch 2nd Gen has a 533 MHz Samsung ARM and 128 MB of RAM, the 32 GB and 64 GB configurations of the iPod touch 2nd Gen have an 800 MHz Samsung ARM processor and 256 MB of RAM, and the iPod touch 4th Gen models, regardless of capacity, have a variable clockspeed Apple A4 processor running in the 700 MHz to 800 MHz range and 256 MB of RAM (this makes the iPod 4 run apps more quicker than the iPod 2).Maximum battery life for the iPod touch 2nd Gen models officially is 30 hours for music playback whereas it is 40 hours for the iPod touch 4th Gen models. For video playback, the 2nd Gen models officially provide six hours of runtime and the 4th Gen provide seven.
