IPhone Release Date News: Software 3.0 vs. New Handset

IPhone Release Date News: Software 3.0 vs. New Handset

By: Daniel Chubb | June 8, 2009 | 16 Comments

When it comes to the release date of the new iPhone OS 3.0 software and the rumored new iPhone 2009, they are both very different.

While a new iPhone would most likely come with the latest firmware installed, the release date would be months after the WWDC 2009 event today, although the download for the new iPhone 3.0 firmware would come much sooner.

As reported earlier today, this iPhone 3.0 update may be available to download during the Apple WWDC keynote. This means that the improvements to current iPhone models would be huge thanks to the big changes in the new software.

The changes rumored in the new iPhone hardware may be so slight, that you may be happy with the current iPhone model and new software.

Two names have been repeated across the web over and over, this includes iPhone 3GS and iPhone Video. It seems that these are on the money if a new handset is unveiled today.

Although if some analyst’s are right, you may well get the new iPhone 3.0 firmware but NOT the unveiling of a new iPhone at WWDC 2009. It’s our expectation that the iPhone 3.0 download will be today, but the new iPhone hardware will happen but later this year.

    I found this website that i linked to my name above actually found them in facebook, just click on my name to go there, dont worry, you dont need to be a facebook member. They had me up and running in no time and i now have complete access to their Apple developers account with my own user ID and password. They have links to the newest beta firmware for pc’s and mac as well as iTunes 8.2 links. It was worth it, just my 2 cents for anyone who is in the same boat i was.
