Apple iPhone 3G Update
A source at Apple tells me that a cosmetic difference between the original iPhone and the new iPhone 3G is that the new model will have a plastic case. Buyers will have a choice of black or white plastic.
That could be a issue to some iPhone purists - the brushed metal case of the original iPhone is pretty classy looking. On the other hand, anything Apple creates is classy. Besides, the metal is slippery in the hand while plastic might be easier to hold.
The iPhone 3G is expected July 11. As I have previously written, it is the software update for my original iPhone that I am looking forward to on that date.
