Yes please! Some side-to-side comparison please. But I just compared the opening of Settings in this video to opening Settings on my iPgone 3G, with no additional apps installed, and in the video it definitely opens MUCH faster!
Got a tip for us?

Bah.
Maybe mine will ship this evening. It's been "prepared for shipment" for two days.
Same here
The 3G opens applications just as fast with the 3.0 software, especially when there is nothing on the phone like in this video. I've been using it for the past week and it's snappy.
What do you mean "go into Apple to get it set up?" I preordered too and am scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Do I have to go to an Apple store to complete the setup?
I'm like you. I've been downloading apps this whole time just waiting for an iPhone. Now I'll have one.
I want to see more, more, more...
I want to see a speed comparison between the 3G and the 3G S.
I want to see a speed test of the browser
I want to see foto's from the new camera
I want to see pictures taken with the new camera
Ah,

Ah,
Can't wait to see the update to the iPod Touch with Speed boost.
Yeah when is new Touch going to show up?
OK, I'm jealous now. This recession needs to end so I can afford new toys and get rid of my 'reboot 6 times a day, lagging, NO volume' iPhone 2G.
Did you lose your job?
I ordered mine on the 8th, the day it was announced, and it still has yet to ship. Hopefully that will change soon. I noticed the shipping method was updated to priority from standard. So, I'm hoping to get mne tomorrow as well.
I'm in the same boat. I ordered mine on the same day via apple.com and it still shows not yet shippped!
Interesting, it appears all the lettering on the back of the phone is now chrome rather than just printed on.
Delivery Dates
While the UPS site says delivery of mine tomorrow, Apple's site says delivery will be Monday. Friday would be halfway of the possible delivery days for UPS.
I have though over the years received many items prior to their actual release date. The update tomorrow would make delivery possible, but I have learned to never expect anything when they say it will arrive.
Whether it is tomorrow, Friday, Monday or even after makes no difference to me. When it arrives, it does. Not much you can do about it either way.

I'm not sure what people expect for the camera on videos and stills but I'm still going to keep a camera with me on vacations. A phone is just for those quick snaps and video. So I wouldn't complain about the camera in that respect.
Although we still don't get a flash/video light. RIM has one of the best in their camera phones. Maybe with the iPhone G4. Anybody make a flash accessory?

Whoa--Do we have to go to an Apple Store to activate it?? As a 2G user, I'm assuming I can just activate it through Itunes with my current sim card, or the new one, if included?
