In that marketplace full touchscreen phones were still a rarity, but the iPhone boasted slim 11.6mm dimensions, a 3.5-inch, 480 x 320 multi-touch display, an accelerometer, 4GB or 8GB of storage, free push email from Yahoo, visual voicemail, Bluetooth and automatic Wi-Fi connectivity. As far as internal specs go, the iPhone 3G wasn't much different than the original iPhone. But now...there was an App Store! This iPhone got its moniker for its 3G connectivity, which meant access to internet you could actually use without wanting to throw the iPhone across the room.
