Showcasing the drool-worthy

TechRepublic's Bill Detwiler dissects the newest incarnation of the iPhone and compares it with its predecessor.

From the front, the iPhone 3G looks nearly identical to the original iPhone, which we cracked open in 2007. Here you see the screen, speaker, and Home button.

According to Apple's technical specifications, the iPhone 3G is 4.5 inches high, 2.4 inches wide, and 0.48 inches deep. It weighs 4.7 ounces. The phone's Multi-Touch display offers 480-by-320-pixel resolution at 163 ppi. The iPhone 3G is almost identical to the original iPhone in size and weight.

The iPhone 3G has an accelerometer, proximity sensor, and ambient light sensor.
