The third time's the charm for the new iPhone 3G S, the latest addition to Apple Inc.'s successful smartphone family that has sold more than 20 million units in less than two years. Perhaps you were one of the many who tuned in online to Apple's Worldwide Developer's Conference (WWDC) to witness the unveiling of the handset (the "S" stands for speed, by the way). If so, you're likely aware of its promising new features, which include faster performance, additional storage space, video recording functions, an improved digital camera, voice-controlled music playback options, a digital compass and more. That said, those who already own an iPhone or iPhone 3G shouldn't feel too left out of the fun as some of the goodies built into the iPhone 3G S are now downloadable via a free software upgrade, iPhone OS 3.0 (see sidebar). AT&T, by the way, has now dropped the price of its existing 8GB iPhone 3G to $99 (with two-year term).
