iPhone 3G S Early Review Roundup
Well, it looks like UPS did indeed deliver a few iPhone 3G S a tad early. Heh. And here’s what some of the top guns in tech thought of Apple’s newest handset.
Overall, most felt it was evolution rather than revolution, a solid update if not one re-forged in the unicorn tears of it’s ancestors. Is the best getting better enough?

That’s a shame that Apple didn’t get you guys an early unit to review. When I saw the engadget/gizmodo reviews I immediately came here to see if you’d have an early review up. Please include lots of photos and videos taken with the iPhone’s camera, including several low-light photos. The photos I’ve seen from the engadget/gizmodo reviews don’t look nearly as impressive as the samples shown on Apple’s website.

I think I can sum up what just about every one of these reviews says that I have read.
-If you don’t have an iPhone already now is the time… -If you have original iPhone now is the time to upgrade… -If you have iPhone 3G just get 3.0 and wait…unless you can get the cheap upgrade pricing…

Thanks for that link Anthony! Definitely some impressive (and a few not-so-impressive) photos there. I definitely think I’ll be ordering a couple of iPhone 3GS’s soon.
