Just posted - The very first reviews of the new iPhone, great reading....
1) David Pogue -
One year and 11 days ago, our nation was swept by iPhone Mania. TV news
coverage was relentless. Hard-core fans camped out to be the first in
line. Bloggers referred to Apple¹s new product as the ³Jesus phone.²
It was a stunning black slab of glass: a cellphone, a brilliant music
and video player and the best pocket Internet terminal the world had
ever seen. The huge, bright, touch-sensitive screen made it addictive
fun to rotate, page through or magnify your photos, videos and Web pages.
Today, the iPhone is in the hands of six million people. Clumsy
touch-screen lookalikes from rival phone makers line the shelves.
And Friday is the iPhone¹s second coming.

2) Walt Mossberg
Apple Inc.¹s iPhone has been the world¹s most influential smart phone
since its debut a year ago, widely hailed for its beauty and
functionality. It was a true hand-held computer that raised the bar for
all its competitors. But that first iPhone had two big drawbacks: It was
expensive, and it couldn¹t access the fastest cellular-phone networks.
On Friday, Apple is launching a second-generation iPhone, called the
iPhone 3G, which addresses both of those problems, while retaining the
look and feel of the first model¹s hardware and software.
