Are they going to convert the iphone to the 3G network? Has anyone heard anything? I tried asking ATT but they don't know or won't say. I would love the speed increase. is this going to be a firmware update for the edge phones or will we have to purchase another iPhone? That would suck.. I sense a hack coming on..............!!!!

Ooooo, 3G on the iPhone would be SWEET! Not sure if it's hard/software change tho, anyone know if the EDGE "receiver" would work for 3G?

[FrogsOblivious]

3g requires hardware... aka you can't get 3g on your current iphone, you'll have to buy the new one.

found this image on the Apple site when looking at the $100 credit. Notice the new option in the General Settings menu: "home Button"

Nice! I wonder if thats a Touch screenshot, or if they are giving us new options. I know on the Touch you can press the home button twice to bring up the iPod menu. Maybe they will give us the option to customize it..

If the iPhone is built like there IMacs that had the abgn wifi and you had to buy the software to enable the n then this could be a possibility. Who knows what the iPhone really has. For all we know it could even have a gps built in and apple could have been working on a software to work with it like google map.

Screw all the updates untill we get FLASH!!!!

If it had a GPS receiver in it we would know by now. The phone has been taken apart and dissected many times by now..

Check out Apple's website for the $100 credit. At the bottom of the second screen there are screen shots showing how to find your serial #.

On those screen shots it clearly shows firmware v1.1.1.

It also shows a new home button setting and international setting (presumably for keyboard options) options. This will be the next firmware update.

Yes true but it could have been easily been missed. There is company in UK that has come up with a prototype of a gps on a sim. So it is possible it could have been missed because of it's size. Here is the link to the article - http://crunchgear.com/2007/04/27/gps...m-right-right/

I wonder if that will relock the iPhone.
