You can't escape the fact that in this world, there will be a few lucky folks who will get their hands on certain devices way before it is officially released so that a review can be posted as quickly as possible. Same thing applies to the highly coveted 3G iPhone, as Walt Mossberg from the Wall Street Journal has taken this magical handset from Apple and arrived at a conclusion. According to him, the 3G speeds are a boon when it comes to surfing on-the-go, while both audio quality and phone reception have been improved. There are brickbats as well, including AT&T's new pricing structure which is rather hard on the pockets, while a talktime of less than 5 hours is not stellar. In addition, you can sync either Exchange or personal email accounts, but not both. Will this review stop the legions of fanboys from picking up the 3G iPhone? Definitely not - their mind is already made up a long time ago.
