New iPhone 3G S model and OS update announced. Rolls out middle of Jun 09

Also announced at Apple’s WWDC was the latest update to the iPhone OS to 3.0 which will come out in less than 10 days on Jun 17. Oh, but that’s not as big as the new iPhone 3G S model being released 2 days later.

The iPhone 3G S 16GB will be $199 and the 32GB will be $299, while existing 8GBers will sell for $99. New in the 3G S is a digital compass, video recording, voice control and a better camera.

Engadget has some (painfully) detailed coverage of today’s keynote with screenshots, or you can see the whole presentation on Apple’s site.

Microsoft Windows XP copies still available

As you know, Windows XP isn’t going to be around forever, and let’s face it, technology is constantly changing, so you may not want to run it forever. However, we can’t blame you if you don’t care for Vista, and who knows if Windows 7 will really be a ‘cure’? So while you’re waiting for W7, don’t wait to snag a last-minute copy of Windows XP. Home and Professional editions are still available right now.

New Palm OS on its way

Sweet. Here’s the new Linux-based Palm OS from Access (they swallowed up Palm Source). It supports Linux apps (cool) and yes, it also supports classic Palm apps too (excellent).

Screenshot makes it look nice and bright compared to the current version, but I’ll bet that looks different on a Treo/Palm.

All kinds of PDFs on framework, security and development on the Access website.
