“With 8 hours of talk time, and 24 hours of audio playback, iPhone’s battery life is longer than any other ‘Smartphone’ and even longer than most MP3 players,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “We’ve also upgraded iPhone’s entire top surface from plastic to optical-quality glass for superior scratch resistance and clarity.

Pretty impressive. Read the entire press release.On a side note; I’d really hate to see Orange (and with them Telia) as the only iPhone provider in Europe. Why do I say that? Well, EU operators bemoan Apple’s iPhone arrogance, according to VNUnet.
