Do you think the new version will have a phazer ?


a) Apple Store or AT&T Store
b) At the moment, unless things change with the new phone, you gotta switch over to AT&T.
c) Light-Saber, maybe. Phaser, no.

Battery life is directly related to the features you have turned on/off on your 3G phone. Things like BlueTooth, Wireless, 3G, and the GPS features eat battery life. Turn off the features you do not use on a daily basis.

Battery life on the 3G may (or may not) improve with the new iPhone 3.0 is released along with the new iPhones. Battery life management is somewhat software related. Apple does need to improve on that, as the 3G battery life is not stellar during heavy use of the phone.

One of the new features of 3.0 is the addition of MMS - the feature that allows you to send/receive photos. Another feature of 3.0 is the ability to copy/paste.

Even for those of us with the older 3G phones, the new 3.0 iPhone OS will greatly improve your phone. That will be coming out at the same time the new iPhones are out. Soon. End of the month kinda soon.
