Other features are similar, including a large multi-touch display, full web browser, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, iPod music player, 2 megapixel camera, and up to 16 GB of internal memory.
iPhone features the most revolutionary user interface since the mouse. It’s an entirely new interface based on a large multi-touch display and innovative new software that lets you control everything using only your fingers. So you can glide through albums with Cover Flow, flip through photos and email them with a touch, or zoom in and out on a section of a web page — all by simply using iPhone’s multi-touch display.
Intelligent Keyboard iPhone’s full QWERTY soft keyboard lets you easily send and receive SMS messages in multiple sessions, and the keyboard is predictive, so it prevents and corrects mistakes, making it easier and more efficient to use than the small plastic keyboards on many smart phones.
The iPhone 3G comes certified unlocked, which means that you cause use this 3G iPhone with any GSM network worldwide.

Activating your iPhone
You activate your iPhone in a whole new way using iTunes right on your computer. All you need is a PC or Mac, a credit card, access to the Internet and an email address.
The credit approval for your AT&T service also happens on your computer. It's part of activating through iTunes, but if you'd rather have your credit pre-approved before you leave the store, an AT&T store representative can help you with that.
You will also select an available plan during activation.
Available plans
To use iPhone, you'll need to sign up for a 2-year service agreement or a renewed 2-year service agreement if you're an existing AT&T wireless customer.
The plans start at $59.99 and include Visual Voicemail and Unlimited Data with both email and web plus texting. You can browse the Internet and send emails as often as you like without being charged extra.
You'll choose your plan during the activation process.
Existing Customer Plans
If you're an existing AT&T wireless customer and you want to keep your current voice plan, you just need to add a data plan for iPhone. (This may replace your current data plan.) Data plans for iPhone give you Visual Voicemail, SMS Text Messaging bundles, and Unlimited Data, which includes both email and web, all for as little as $20.
You'll add a data plan for iPhone during the activation process.
