iPhone 3G vs. original
The iPhone User Group in Hong Kong claims to have photos of the iPhone 3G injection mold and has posted several comparison photos to the first-generation iPhone. Introduced Monday morning at WWDC, the new iPhone 3G will initially only be available in Apple and AT&T retail stores and require in-store activation, will be available on July 11th in 22 countries around the world and by 70 within several months. Among the new iPhone 2.0 features, the iPhone 3G has hardware improvements, including improved audio, a flush-mounted headphone, new software/features, faster downloads on AT&T's 3G network, improved battery life and will require iTunes 7.7, Apple claims.

Injection Mold?

That's more likely a rapid prototype. There shouldn't be an injection mold in existence that molds a complete iPhone.

Hmm

The rounded back probably feels nice in the hand, but it won't lie flat on the table, and there are some kinds of case (e.g. leather) that won't fit it nicely.
