Apple posts new iPhone info

For UK readers just came across http://www.cheapest-iphone.co.uk for good links and reviews

But I have just found out that the phone is only available on o2, carphonewarehouse and Apple. Not sure if that is a problem, but at least most people have a carphonewarehouse where they live!

don't know if anyone saw this before.... but

Yes, the "thing" mentioned by #7 is the sleep switch/button. It is what Steve pressed to wake up the iPhone for his demo.

I believe the sim card slot is between that button and the headphone jack. If you look at the iPhone section of apple.com at the iPod feature section and click on the "video" demo, you can take a look at the top of the phone, and it appears to me that there's a bit of a visible slot there.

I'm surprised people don't remember the Bluetooth headset. Pretty much just looked like a little black stick. It's definitely shown in the video of the Jan keynote.

hi kory,

i think i remember Steve holding that button at the macworld keynote to lock the screen, so he could demo the "slide to unlock" feature again ... if i wasn't a lazy man, i would go check!

@ibob

you sure? cause there isn't track or gap next to it, like with normal hold switches...but maybe i'm a dumb (;

Yeah, what about that "new, remarkably compact Bluetooth headset"?

kory, i think thats just the hold switch thing

...and if you look closely, it appears we get one of our first looks at the "SIM tray" that's been so talked about, but is it just me or does it appear that the SIM isn't flush and sticks out a bit from the phone? hmmmm....

What happened to two finger zooming and all that? Did M$ steel that patent or what?

David, yep, we knew this. Steve mentioned it during the iPhone intro back in Jan
