Unfortunately, no iPhone Nano. Apple has just announced at WWDC in San Francisco that there will be an updated model of the ‘regular’ iPhone, the iPhone 3GS. As I already expected the updates are mostly in the software.

Summarized, the following improvements will be made:

  • Very much needed longer battery life: Up to 5 hours talking time.
  • It is much faster: up to 4 times faster than the ‘old’ 3G
  • 3 Megapixel autofocus camera, which will also allow you to shoot film.
  • Editing capabilities
  • 32 gig version added
  • Voice recognition

For all the laggards who are stuck with their 3G because of a 2 year subscription there is also news. A new version of the operating system will be available on june 17. Most important new features are:

  • Landscape keyboard in major apps
  • MMS
  • Find my iPhone: This allows you to track your phone through a computer if you have lost it. You can even delete the data from your phone when it has been stolen.
  • TomTom is finally coming to the iPhone for some real navigation
