“Not So Pleasant” Surprise as Apple announced iPhone 3Gs during Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco

The anticipated USD100 iPhone  turned out NOT to be the way most will like it. The USD99 Iphone is simply an agreement between At&T and Apple to sell the “old” 8GB iPhone at USD99 and the 16G’s at USD149.

Yes , the USD99 iPhone is NOT the New iPhone 3Gs 2009!

But still, the iPhone 3Gs do have some other rumours of improvement pretty much confirmed during the Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco on Monday.

The iPhone 3G S in 2 choices of a of 16GB and 32GB – will be available in black and white. It also had confirmed that it will comes with a 3MP camera that can record 30 fps video where user can edit videos directly on the device.

Speed is another important theme for the iPhone 3Gs( that’s where the “s” behind the 3G actually mean) where Apple claim an increased of 2 X to 3.6 X faster performance on the iPhone’s a wide range of apps, and also a faster data transfer speeds from 3.6Mbps to 7.2Mbps HSDPA.

While Voice Dialing is something most other phones had fro years, Apple do make it interesting by expanding a little more of the voice control technology to the Music app, like playing your choice of track, even album and artist name.

Another cool feature is called “Find My iPhone” where you can locate your iPhone if for any reasons you had lost your phone.Once activated, the phone will enables the “Find my iPhone” service on your Mobile Me account at me.com.” It would appear that the service obtains the iPhone’s location and makes it available to the MobileMe user on request if the unit is lost or stolen.

Other added functions pertty much stays the same as what Apple had revealed back in March including  copy and paste, MMS, voice memo recording, Spotlight search, landscape email/notes/messaging, 3G tethering (via Bluetooth or USB), stereo Bluetooth (A2DP), peer-to-peer Bluetooth connectivity…etc.

So now it boils down to 2 questions for all future iPhone Owners: Getting the USD99 8G iPhone or the new  USD199 or USD299(for 16 & 32G respectively) iPhone 3Gs?
