Iphone 3G? Now it's Iphone 3G S!

So WWDC has come and gone and well, as predicted by almost everyone (and their psychic pet) Apple has announced the next gen Iphone.

The Iphone 3G S. Whoa? I suppose S stands for Speed, seeing that Apple is saying that "on average it's twice as fast" as the Iphone 3G. No processor details for the time being though.

That being said, I want one. 3 megapixel camera with auto focus and video recording capabilities, on board compass, Nike+ support, voice control and longer battery life, what's not to like? However

1. When will Maxis actually bring it in?
2. How will Maxis price it?

Seriously the Iphone 3G packages that Maxis previously offered bordered on the ludicrous. No unlimited data packages right off the bat, no packages for casual users. Maxis needs to provide more variety in their packages if they want to increase market penetration. Or else users would simply buy from a neighbouring country...doo dah doo dah *whistles*

Here's hoping that Maxis bucks up this time around because many many people are going to want this sexy piece of hardware. Unless Maxis has always been targeting those with fat wallets all this time...
