For every new benefit or addition with the iPhone 2.0, there is potential pitfall or room for 
improvement.
Below are the top 5 “So What Benefits” of the iPhone 2.0:
- New GPS system. Yes, but it doesn’t show you where you’re starting from which defeats the purpose if you’re aimlessly lost.
- 3G speed. This is supposed to be an upgrade in Internet speed from the old EDGE network of att; however, this speed is undocumented and may be spotty in certain areas.
- Third-party software will offer chat ability. It is insane that the iPhone cannot offer a chat system directly via its interface. To have to go through a third-party site or software begs that a flaw is in the technology.
- Push technology for e-mails. This means 2.0 will have e-mails automatically arrive upon receipt instead of needing to check auto-send/receive in settings on a certain timer. Here’s the catch: this only applies to Yahoo!
- The keyboard. It’s still the screen touchpad approach which, well, it’s not as easy as the Blackberry’s keyboard.
