iPhone 2 is the latest buzz on the Apple front. It has 3G, it is 22% thinner than the previous model, has gps, and the price tag is $199, half the price of the original. You can see below a 60 seconds clip illustrating the key moments from the Apple presentation:



I think that the interesting fact about the iPhone 2 is the price. $200 isn't much for what you get compared to the competition. Apple must get the missing $ from the original price from somewhere.. and my first guess is an agreement with the mobile services provider. The subscription plans for the iPhone are quite expensive and I don't think that we will see any changes on that front.

I'm curious to see how European mobile services will include the phone in their subscription plans. It would be cool on their behalf to make the iPhone available for purchase without a subscription (and a higher price tag, as usual), although that would go against the marketing model that Apple promotes.
