Also from another site they are talking about taking the iPhone 3G apart and they are saying how the G3 is put together differently. (maybe to save cost or who knows what)
Who cares what I say hahaha back to the iPhone.
Only time will tell.

2G sucks.

No GPS...

And the headphone jack is stupidly recessed.

And - im guessing the Yellow Screen will be replaced at Apples cost...

Hahahahahaha

Hmmm, so if all iPhones have this?? How many do you think, are they gonna replace :P Like, they won't replace all the 1million (approx figure) they've produced, because of a cheaper display.

I'm almost always near a hotspot.

GPS....... like you don't know where you are standing.

I use bluetooth, what headphone jack.......

More pain, more problems, more downtime.

TBH I think they were made this way on purpose. On a bunch of other sites, blogs, talkbacks, like, macrumors, engadget and whatnot.....it seems everyones is this way, but only noticable when compared to their old one. I wouldnt count on Apple replacing them, it seems it was done on purpose, perhaps to cut costs
