The much anticipated next generation iPhone has been announced by Apple chief executive Steve Jobs.
The 3G device will come with location based GPS mobile services and new iPhone 2.0 software that runs hundreds of third party applications built with the iPhone SDK (Software Developers Kit).
Apple claims that the new 3G connection will be roughly 2.8 times as fast as the Edge wireless connection on the original iPhone. The company also suggested that the new iPhone would run faster than other 3G handsets, claiming that it outperformed the Nokia N95 and Treo 750 by some 36 per cent.
Apple plans to initially release the iPhone in 12 countries, included premieres in Hong Kong, India and Mexico. In later months, Apple plans to expand iPhone’s reach to some 70 countries.
The newly announced 3G iPhone will hit stores on 11 July for the knock down price of $199 (£100). [Source: vnunet.com & siliconrepublic.com]

This is a new feature Honda decided to add to its GPS System: crime avoidance feature. With this feature drivers will get an alert through Honda’s on-board navigation system about areas where cars have been damaged, stolen or broken into in the past. 
The new feature is expected to start this week. The new system relies on crime information provided by Japanese police departments.
There has been no indication by Honda whether this feature will be available in US.
