On a whole I was completely underwhelmed with the new iPhone and keynote. I personally feel that the new 3GS doesn't really provide current 3G owners with much of an upgrade incentive. Certainly there are some advantages with better battery life and slightly faster hardware, but surely certain features such as video could have been provided within iPhone OS 3.0 rather than making it a 3GS only feature? You've only got to look at Cyrecorder (a jailbreak app) to realise that this is already possible on current generation iPhones (albeit a bit choppy at times). Voice recognition has also been accomplished by Google for their search app. I do understand that companies have a business model and need to achieve certain goals particularly when it comes to making money, but I sometimes do wonder if Apple is taking us all for idiots.
