The latest model in the iPhone family: the iPhone 3GS (S for Speed) was introduced in a world launch on Friday June 18th, 2009. This new model, which we have acquired at WhereCloud, is much speedier than its predecessor thanks a to a new CPU and GPU chip.

The 3GS also sports a new camera with an auto-focusing lens that allows you to take better picture. But the real gem, is the ability to shoot, edit and send videos. This will completely change the messaging landscape and cell-phone providers will surely capitalize on it.

We are only seeing the tip of the iceberg of what will be accomplished with this new phone and its enhanced capabilities.
Consumers are also clapping for those new functions because Apple announced, only 3 days after it’s introduction, that they have already sold over 1 million iPhone 3GS.

This is really a stunning achievement since this is the 3rd revision of the iPhone product. I think the combination of the hardware and the new capabilities of OS 3.0 made this launch another success for the Cupertino-based company. Looks like the love for the iPhone is not faltering even with strong competitors chasing: Google Android, Palm Pre.

In our on internal tests, everything was much faster, from startup of applications to scrolling complex views to drawing 3D shapes.

This also signals another downpour of new iPhone applications on the AppStore. The AppStore number is currently at 52,000 applications and without some changes by Apple in the way the AppStore is structured, the iPhone user will be left on its own into discovery new and innovative applications.
