iPhone 3G Verdicts: owners wait for 2.0 software

Getting your hands on a nice new iPhone 3G before the release date is near impossible but it’s not a problem for the big players like USA Today, New York Times and Wall Street Journal.

The NYT finds the New in iPhone 2.0 “Relative”, the WSJ admits it’s a newer, faster, cheaper iPhone 3G but found that iPhone owners who are happy should hold off for the iPhone 2.0 software.

USA Today say the iPhone 3G comes really close to perfection and the reviewer said it has “no equal among consumer-oriented smartphones” after spending two weeks with iPhone 3G.

The three hands-on reviews of iPhone 3G have agreed in their own way that new users who have been waiting for the iPhone to drop price or get better features should defiantly buy the new version.

They also agree that existing owners of the first generation iPhone should wait for the new software update before thinking about buying iPhone 3G, that’s unless you need the higher data speeds of 3G and GPS features.

Read the detailed reviews of USA Today, NYT and WSJ but remember to get a drink first as it’s a long read.

Looking at the speed increase from the first iPhone to the second, I will have to update my first-gen iPhone as I do use web browsing and other data features a lot while on the move.
