Paul – yup, does seem very odd that they did not shout about improved processor / RAM at yesterday's event – guess that likely means those did not get the major upgrades that were expected …

Thanks, Patrick. I must agree that the new features seem a bit clouded in mystery in respect of the hardware supporting them.

Reggie, it will be very interesting to see what the jailbreak community does to support the video capabilities of the 3G S, albeit at half the frame rates, likely =

Paul – iChat – I think not, as there was no mention of it. Faster processor and more RAM memory = I really hope so, but it is a little worrying that specs for those were not mentioned at all.

Reggie – I believe that is correct. Video recording is specific to the new iPhone 3GS model.

Still can't shoot video on the 3G with the 3.0 upgrade? Is that correct?

Does the new iPhone 3GS have a faster processor (ala. the current iPod Touch)?

Does it have more "working" memory so we can run more apps at the same time more easily?

What about iChat video calls?
