The iPhone 3GS: Still won't be lining up

So the iPhone 3GS, the new iPhone has finally been announced after much rumors and speculations.
So after a year, what does the new iPhone have to offer. Well, we have a major camera revamp--3 megapixels! I don't know whether to laugh or cry. While other manufacturers, especially in Japan would consider a 3 megapixel camera to be something they'd put on a low-end device. However, Apple says that the camera will have an improved light sensitivity and macro mode.
Also, the additiona of voice control/voice dialing which is something that can be found even on the oldest Nokia 3300 phones. Apple also added--a Compass though why would you use that when you have GPS is beyond me.
What I do like about the iPhone 3GS features is the accessibility option which would allow the phone to read text out loud, this is a definitely useful application for our visually impaired friends.
Other than that, it's the same iPhone with the same looks. But if you're an Apple fanboy and you really want to find out more, head on over to engadgetmobile to find out more.
I could be wrong, GPS + compass = a navigation unit.
Have you seen the TomTom kit and software for the Gs?
