OZ 3G iPhone To Be Fastest In The World
By David Richards | Thursday | 22/05/2008
Australia will have the fastest Apple 3G iPhone in the world a senior
executive of Telstra has told ChannelNews. "We know what is coming we
have seen the new device and it will be available on our network as
soon as it is launched in the USA. By Xmas this phone will be capable
of 42mbs which will make it faster than a lot of broadband offerings
and the fastest iPhone on any network in the world " they said.
"We believe that this will be a major driver for many peope to invest
in a new smart phone it will will also create a big buzz as many
vendors plan to launch new smart phones at the same time" they added.
The 3G version of Apple's iPhone will become available very soon
after its June 9 unveiling by CEO/chairman Steve Jobs at the Apple
Worldwide Developer Conference in San Francisco say Apple insiders.
ChannelNews has also been told that Telstra already have 3G phones for
testing.
Jobs said recently that Apple plans to release a software kit that
allows developers to make applications for the iPhone and iPod touch.
The latest move shows that Apple is lifting restrictions on the iPhone
after facing public scrutiny when hackers unlocked their iPhones to
work on other cell carriers. In addition, Apple locked out 3rd party
application use.
Jobs said that unlocking the iPhone for 3rd party development use may
give users access to hundreds of new applications which are not
currently available for the mobile gadget.
Apple's decision to open up the iPhone and touch to outside developers
is a step many users and industry watchers have been hoping for and
demanding since the device's release. So great was the desire for
third-party applications that many iPhone users and more recently iPod
touch users have taken it upon themselves to crack the gadgets and
install everything from banking programs to games. iPhone games could
be the next hot item, as music is hot for the iPod.
Investment bank Piper Jaffray, which surveyed Apple stores earlier
this month found that the iPhone is not available at half of the Apple
USA retail stores, that both the 8GB and 16GB models were unavailable
from the online store, and that shortages have been reported recently
in the UK, suggesting the older models are beig cleared out, ahead of
a new model.

How can that be so? If the 3G iPhone is built using the same chips as
the first one it will max out at around 7 Mbps!
Gixmodo says maybe 14.4 Mbps but not 43 mbs...
• The iPhone beta firmware code specifically mentions the Infineon S-
GOLD 3.
• There have been multiple press and analysts' reports about Infineon
getting the contract for the next version, continuing its relationship
with Apple—right now the iPhone uses the Infineon S-GOLD 2 as its
baseband chip.
The S-GOLD 3 tops at 7.2Mbps.
Gizmodo also observes...
So yes, the Telstra network may support 14.4mbps devices, but most
likely—and unless there were five million supersecret 42Mbps baseband
chips that nobody knows about, hidden in an subaquatic lair in the
Pacific—the iPhone 3G, already well into production ahead of its June
9 launch, will not support those speeds for a very long time to come.
Maybe the unnamed Telstra senior executive is implying that, next
Xmas, Apple will introduce an iPhone with a radically redesigned
motherboard using that supersecret baseband chip that nobody knows
about right now.
Bottom line
Job's Apple may pull another rabbit out of the hat to the astonishment
of the world.
