iPhone gets upgraded

Looks like the iPhone has already received an upgrade even before it has been released, with Apple dropping an announcement that the iPhone will come with a longer battery life than originally stated when it is released this June 29th. What we’re looking at here are some truly impressive specifications – up to 8 hours of talk time, 6 hours of Internet surfing, and 250 hours of standby time – that means over 10 days of power, assuming you leave the iPhone all alone during that time, of course. The battery can also provide enough juice for up to 7 hours of video playback and 24 hours of audio playback. In addition, the entire top surface has been given optical-quality glass instead of plastic for a higher level of scratch resistance and optical clarity. While I’m sure there will be nagging details as with any first-gen product, those improvements sure are good news to iPhone campers.
