Apple's iPhone 3G: high quality photos [white added]

Despite the activation woes around the world -- including the US, UK, and Canada -- for the $1 billion event, Apple's iPhone 3G hit the streets with little surprises (given the early mostly positive reviews, unboxing leaks, and official unboxing videos). Packaged in a smaller box, the new iPhone 3G is nestled in a black recyclable cardboard holder rather than the clear plastic holder used with the original iPhone. The iPhone 3G also comes with Apple's earphones, a very small power adapter (inset into the box so it doesn't move), and USB charging cable, but no dock. Unfortunately, the new iPhone is not compatible with older docks; the new iPhone 3G dock (available at the time of purchase) is sold separately for $29.99. The new iPhone 3G looks different (more slick, if you can imagine), though the size is relatively the same. The improved ergonomics and curve are relatively minor, but overall change the feeling of the device.
