Apple has unveiled a second generation of its iPhone, with support for faster 3G wireless networks. The company is hoping to boost its share of the smartphone market, which is dominated by Nokia and Blackberry.
The new iPhone also comes with GPS satellite navigation built in for location-based services.
The iPhone was first launched last year and was criticized for its support for slower 2G networks only.
Mr. Jobs said the 3G iPhone was ""three times faster"" downloading content over a mobile network compared to the original device.
Analyst John Delaney, research director for consumer mobile at IDC, said the iPhone 3G was disappointing. ""To me it's more about what they didn't say, than what they did. Everyone knew it would be 3G and have GPS.""
