Apple was criticized to a degree for not launching the iPhone on a 3G network, opting instead for doing an exclusive two-year partnership with AT&T and running the iPhone on AT&T's 2.5G EDGE network. And almost from the minute the iPhone was rolled out in June, speculation arose about if and when Apple would release a 3G version of the device.
Despite the demand for a 3G iPhone, Shaw Wu of American Technology Research said that 3G wireless, "is still a relatively niche technology and not widely deployed, particularly here in the USA."
Wu said that while there are a good number of 3G phones in use, "the untold reality is they utilize much more prevalent 2G and 2.5G wireless infrastructure most of the time."
With this in mind, Wu believes that Apple has held off introducing a 3G iPhone because the devices typically require more-expensive components and need as much as 40% more battery power than other cell phones, which Wu says are issues for Apple to consider since the iPhone offers so many different functions.
