-thicker body
-rounder edges
-extra colors (red, white and black)

I heard that you have to renew your contract to get the new iPhone for the discounted price. I don't know whether you can buy the phone WITHOUT renewing your contract, as long as you are still on AT&T.

I think Apple + AT&T are cracking down on iPhones being unlocked -- I mean, hell, my boyfriend's using his iPhone on T-Mobile! Anyways, what's happening is that by forcing 3G iPhone purchasers to renew or sign up for a new contract. :[

Q: But what's this I hear about the plans being more expensive?
A: It's true that Apple and AT&T are changing the structure and pricing for the iPhone 3G plans. Unlike with the previous handset, you will have to select separate voice and data plans (they won't be combined). Voice plans, which are the same for all AT&T handsets, range from $39.99 to $79.99 per month, depending on the available minutes. Unlimited data plans will be $30 for consumers and $45 business users.

As a result, the cheapest monthly cost for an iPhone user will be $69.99 for unlimited data, plus 450 anytime minutes and 5,000 nights and weekends. That's $10 more than what current iPhone users' pay for comparable services.

Q: Why are AT&T and Apple doing that?
A: We suspect that it's a way to crack down on iPhones that were purchased but were never activated on AT&T's network. By forcing you to activate the phone in a store, you'll be forced to sign up for AT&T service.

I don't mind supporting apple, but I WON'T support AT&T. SO SCREW THE 3G IPHONE!
