The humble iPhone has graduated from phone to smart-phone to phantom limb. Short of slicing and dicing, the iPhone is an unparalleled GPS tracking device, media player, and Internet platform. It has become synonymous with cutting-edge, beautifully designed engineering.

The humble iPhone has graduated from phone to smart-phone to phantom limb. Short of slicing and dicing, the iPhone is an unparalleled GPS tracking device, media player, and Internet platform. It has become synonymous with cutting-edge, beautifully designed engineering.

Truth be told, it's more than a phone. It's a cultural phenomenon. It is a navigator, game platform, television, music player, and even an instrument. Once it was nothing ore than a trinket for the idle rich. Now, it is a vital component for millions worldwide. It gives credence to the old adage: wants become needs as income increases. To be sure, few cellphones can compare to its sleek, seamless design.

Its 3G platform allows people to use the Internet and other features up to twice as fast as the old models. The cost for third generation models is very agreeable. Also, it appears as if the third generation phones have smoothed out the edges that plagued the second-generation phones, namely a Cut & Paste function. This has opened the door for many more people being able to afford this smart-phone.

Its bread and butter is the nifty touch screen. You don't use a stylus or another device to navigate which makes it quicker to get to where you want. There isn't even a keyboard on the phone, but instead you get a virtual keyboard on the screen. You can email, send pictures, or browse the web extremely fast regardless of where you are. The phone even operates as a video player. You can store all your songs and videos on the phone and watch them or listen to them at will. With all of these cool features, the best new feature is the GPS capability on the iPhone 3G.

You can find your location and get directions in a matter of seconds. Just make sure you've pulled over first. The phone integrates with Google Maps and can find your location within a matter of seconds. A map is brought up and your location is represented by a blue dot on the screen. It integrates with several iPhone features to give you a completely unique experience with your phone.
