Well, we got one from the fine folks at Vodafone NZ. Yeah, we’ll admit, between the early peek at the not too drastically changed firmware, guided tours, and announcement hands-on, there’s not a lot of mystery to the iPhone 3G at this point. But if you’ve got any burning questions we can answer with our shiny new Vodafone NZ iPhone 3G, hit us up in comments and we’ll update here with our findings. Stick around, more coming.
Reader questions
Leon: Does it feel any different in your hand than 1st gen iPhone?
We definitely do like the way it feels. It’s a little more slick (or slippery, depending on how wet your palms are with anticipation and/or summer sweat) because of the plastic back, but it’s well curved and comfortable. It doesn’t feel flimsy or plasticy at all.
Santz24: How wildly does it dance on the table compared to the first iPhone?
If you’re asking how the vibrate function compares to the original, we got the two buzzing side by side and they feel pretty much identical.
If you’re asking whether it wobbles on the table as you use it, yes, it does — but the amount of wobble depends on the type of surface. But even on a hard, flat surface it’s not really that bad, and we’re usually sticklers for that kind of thing.
Tom: Does it have Flash support?
Yeah, seems like a fruitless question that we all know the answer to — but we tested it anyway, and the answer is no, Apple didn’t sneak in Flash support so far as we can tell.
More after the break.
Jon: Whats the GPS like?
Well, one neat new tidbit is the little hovering, animated location ring as it tries to lock on your location. If it can’t get an exact lock on you with proper GPS, it does as before, it pulls in as close to the map as it thinks is accurate, centering approximately on where you’re at.
If it CAN get proper GPS, it gives you a blue dot with a transparent blue halo, which pings outward every second or so. So far we had a hard time getting the proper GPS lock without going outside.
Ja: Louder speaker?! Louder volume when holding to your ear?!
Calm down, Ja. Yea, the speaker is noticeably louder, thank god. The earpiece doesn’t sound all that much louder.
