Apple Inc. has unveiled an upgraded iPhone with a faster Internet connection and GPS capabilities.

Analysts have said Apple needed to upgrade the iPhone's Internet connection to work over so-called 3G, or third-generation, wireless networks to hit its target of selling 10 million of the devices by the end of 2008. An 8 gigabyte model is to sell for $199 starting July 11.

The addition of global-positioning technology improves the iPhone's accuracy in locating users. Current versions use a combination of cell phone towers and Wi-Fi locations to do the same thing.

Chief Executive Steve Jobs showed off the phone at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco.

    Oh i found the catch here, :(

    meke thiyana awla machan ara link eke kiyana widiyata :

    " ... Apple plans to make up the difference in sales revenue with volume — and with subsidies wireless carriers will now pay for the right to carry the gadget.

    In changing the pricing arrangements, Apple is pulling out of revenue-sharing arrangements with some wireless carriers, a move that frees the carriers to charge higher prices for the service. ....."

    ekiyanne mata pena widiyata meka eka eka carriers'lata (Vodafone wage...) lock karala connection ekat ekkai denne. Un connection eken gaana shape karanna yanne :(

    ape ratata lock eka ayin karala aawath $199 ta wath eeta asanna gaanakatawat ganna hambenne nathiwei mama hithanne :( :(
