Happy iPhone Day!

If you haven't already had a chance to enjoy an unboxing of an iPhone 3G S, I've put some up for you, right here. The 3G S seems to deliver on its promise: apps load even faster and more smoothly while the 3G radio is amazingly fast compared to 2.5G EDGE.

In early tests, it seems that the AT&T UTMS/HSDPA network is indeed as fast as they claim, competing ably against Verizon's Ev-DO network. On the other hand, it is always tricky to judge handsets' performance from two different carriers, since there are so many variables.

I don't have a lot of other observations just yet, but I did write about the launch event itself today on Open for Business
