Even before the 3G iPhone was launched, many are already interested and curious about the new device. And when Steve Jobs had its keynote during the first day he made it clear that he is very much determined to make their company a bigger player in the industry of mobile phones. Aside from that, he also mentioned that the 3G iPhone will be sold at $199 only. That is almost half the price of the previous iPhone model and also half the price of the high-end phone competitors. This certainly draws customers to take interest in the 3G iPhone especially those who did not buy the first-edition because of the high price.

Aside from that, Apple Inc. also improved the speed of the new iPhone so that it can access

email as well as corporate data. They did this in order to make sure that the 3G iPhone would work with corporate email applications including the MSFT Exchange.

But although Apple Inc. decreased the price and the speed is faster, the company has a lot more work to do so that it can compete against Research in Motion’s BlackBerry. As of now, the BlackBerry has a lot of features that can be used in the corporate world. These are the features that the 3G iPhone does not have yet.

But until the applications and the 3G iPhone is not yet out in the market, Apple would certainly have a lot more surprises in store for the consumers and competitors as well. So RIM and other mobile-phone companies have to watch out.
