Well, for all of you out there who are a little late on the scene, ’cause Win 7 RTM leaked came out ages ago, and now want a hassle free way to download and hacktivate Windows 7……..here’s the guide:

1.Download the iso

Download 32-bit (x86) Windows 7 Ultimate RTM English Retail DVD ISO Image

File Name: 7600.16385.090713-1255_x86fre_client_en-us_Retail_Ultimate-GRMCULFRER_EN_DVD.iso
Size: 2501894144 bytes
CRC: C1C20F76
MD5: D0B8B407E8A3D4B75EE9C10147266B89
SHA-1: 5395DC4B38F7BDB1E005FF414DEEDFDB16DBF610

Torrent: t2041806.torrent orMICROSOFT.WINDOWS.7.ULTIMATE.7600.16385.RTM.X86.RETAIL.ENGLISH.DVD-ZUKO.torrent (mininova or ThePirateBay)

Download 64-bit (x64) Windows 7 Ultimate RTM English Retail DVD ISO Image

File Name: 7600.16385.090713-1255_x64fre_client_en-us_Retail_Ultimate-GRMCULXFRER_EN_DVD.iso
Size: 3224686592 bytes
CRC: 1F1257CA
MD5: F43D22E4FB07BF617D573ACD8785C028
SHA-1: 326327CC2FF9F05379F5058C41BE6BC5E004BAA7

Torrent: t2041850.torrent orMICROSOFT.WINDOWS.7.ULTIMATE.7600.16385.RTM.X64.RETAIL.ENGLISH.DVD-ZUKO.torrent (mininova or The Pirate Bay)

Note: The file sizes, MD5, SHA-1 and CRC checksum hash values of ISO images have confirmed to match official record, so the ISO images is indeed a real original Windows 7 RTM ISO. And also the leaked Windows 7 Ultimate RTM ISO will install Ultimate edition by default.

2.Burn/Extract the iso

Now, you can either burn the iso to a dvd and do a custom install, or extract the contents of the iso using winrar/winzip etc. and run the installation from your hard drive,  but that can only be an upgrade. If you’re upgrading from the RC or Beta, you’ll have to extract the files, go to “Sources” folder, and open cversion.ini in notepad and change MinClient = “*” to say 7000. Save the file and run your upgrade. Or just do a clean install.

3.Hacktivate it

Now, till recently there were many activators for the RTM, but now all the keys they use have been blacklisted. If you can find an activator that still works, tell us, otherwise, use Timernuke. This stops Windows from asking you to activate, and keeps you permanantly in the 30 day activation period……….at least as far as windows is concerned.

What TimerNuke does is that when executed, it stops and changes the startup type of sppsvc (Software Protection), sppuinotify (SPP Notification Service) and SLUINotify (SL UI Notification Service) services to disable. Then, the TimerNuke simply takes ownership and full control permissions on the following files, before backing them up and finally deleting them away.

%SYSPATH%\SLLUA.exe
%SYSPATH%\sppsvc.exe
%SYSPATH%\SLUI.exe
%SYSPATH%\sppuinotify.dll
%SYSPATH%\SLUINotify.dll

Download TimerNukeSetup.zip (mirror) TimerNukeSetup.zip or download fromMDL Forum.

Current Version: 1.0.5.0 Final 1.0.5.0 BETA

Once the Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 is been nuked and cracked with TimerNuke, Windows will stop asking user to activate. The activation status and product ID becomes not available or unknown. Hence, the Windows may run forever without activation permanently.

As an added bonus, the crack may also remove expiry date timebomb of beta and RC releases of Windows 7, although the TimerNuke crack does not specifically target to remove the time bomb. Who would want to use beta build when RTM build is released anyway?

Update:

Just found 2 good activators:

Windows 7 Loader v1.6.8 (x86 & x64)

Features

• Maintain your own list of serials, future or current (comes with allot of preset keys)
• Automatically finds an available drive letter (if required)
• Installer and uninstaller built in as standard
• Checks your Windows version and build before install
• Automatically finds your active boot partition
• Works on all languages
• Works alongside hidden partitions
• Works on Windows 7, Vista and Server 2008 editions
• Support for bios modded users
• Argument support for silent installs
• You can use this tool to activate your Windows 7/Vista ISO by editing setupcomplete.cmd
• Improves Windows 7 boot time on a Mac (Compared to other loaders)

Whats the goal of this program?
To activate you in a clean and simple way without putting a load of buttons and checkboxes on your screen and expecting you to know what to do. It’s all about keeping it simple!

What makes this different from every other loader out at the moment?
It’s not a batch file and all commands are made within the application, it has great error handling and doesn’t try to find the active partition based on size (which every other loader is doing at the moment).

So whats the advantages and why should you care?
With me building this loader as an application I can access system details and create declares for many of the functions. This means anyone that uses this loader should have a greater chance of success!

Whats the differences between each loader option?
Hover your mouse over each option to see 

Ok so how do I run it?
In general you simply press Install!

I activated Windows 7 and now I want to activate Windows Vista, why isn’t it working?
Use the uninstall option while on Windows 7 and reboot into Windows Vista. Next install your selected cert/slic in Windows Vista and then reboot back to Windows 7 and click install.

Activation failed, now what?
Try again with the older loader option enabled, maybe that might just work for you.

Application integrity checking?
Hover your mouse over the green or red icon towards the bottom right of the window to see the information.

I should note that even if the icon is green someone might have found a way around it so it’s worth checking that the applications path is always the same as the location from where you launched the application. You should also check that the MD5 matches the MD5 found online.

Changes since 1.5.4

• 1.6.5 — Improved profile matchups (for matching a SLIC, certificate and serial)
• 1.6.5 — Added activation checking for Windows 7, Vista and Server 2008
• 1.6.5 — Added tokens checking for Windows 7 (alerts the user, repair is manual so that later on down the line this loader will never frankenbuild your system itself!)
• 1.6.5 — Added error handling should UAC fail to elevate the application
• 1.6.5 — Added Asus SLIC, certificate and Home Premium serial
• 1.6.5 — Added new GRLDR beta 0.93 from zsmin
• 1.6.6 — Fixed activation checking for non-english systems (This release is just to address confusion as to if a system is activated or not)
• 1.6.7 — Fixed Windows Vista activation status
• 1.6.7 — Added Windows 7 Enterprise editions as a supported OS, although you will need to wait for OEM SLP keys to leak

Latest

• 1.6.8 — Added application integrity checking. This is a new feature which will display you with information about how the application was launched when the mouse is hovered over the green or red icon. It’s goal is to inform you if you are running an untouched version of the application or one that could have been modified in some way by a script kiddie. Of course green is the best result, if it’s red then be cautious as someone’s likely binded a trojan!

Congrats, you’re now running Windows 7 RTM!

The following is a guest post by Cameron Banga.

Dear Pirates:
About an hour ago, I was searching the web for reviews and information on my first iPhone application, Battery Go!, which was released last Sunday to the App Store. While shifting my eyes over the Google search results, I came across a startling link which I’ll explain in a second.

Before I get to the rest of this tale, let me give you a little history on who I am so that you can better understand my side to this story. Back in May, two friends and I decided to spend the entire summer working as a team on an application for the iPhone. We pretty much had absolutely no experience going into the adventure, spending 60ish hours a week reading, watching videos, playing with code, and gaining as much knowledge as possible in order to complete an application. We put together the concept for Battery Go!, did some coding, and released into the App Store. Over our first 48 hours in the store, we rocketed up to the list of top 100 paid applications in the store and currently sit at spot 75 or so. It’s been one of the proudest moments of my life and I can’t wait to see where the app winds up when all is said and done. The idea that three kids with no programming knowledge can program and release such a successful application in less than two months is absolutely absurd, and I must thank Apple greatly for giving me the opportunity.

Anyways, let’s rewind and go back to the previous paragraph where I was searching Google. So, I’m clicking around links, minding my own business, when I come upon a site which offers pirated iPhone applications. I’m not going to offer up a link here, but I’m sure you can find it on your own if you search hard enough. After poking around for a couple seconds I entered in a CAPTCHA, pressed the submit button, and before I knew it an .ipa file with Battery Go! was sitting on my desktop.

So here’s the point in the story where my emotions start to go all in a whirl, pretty much to a point I can’t really describe through words. First, I kinda felt a whole lot of anger. I mean, how could that idiot take my work and steal it, giving me nothing for each illicit download. Then I started to think like the 21-year old product of the Napster generation I am, seeing piracy as a part of life just like taxes. After that I almost had a sense of flattery, thinking it was kinda cool that some guy across the globe found interest in pirating my app and making it available to the world.

It wasn’t until I saw the amount of times our app has been pirated that I actually began to truly take this piracy to heart. The pirated file was placed online about five hours ago and as of right now, about 3714 people have stolen a copy of Battery Go! That’s not a huge amount by pirating standards, but enough to catch my eye none the less.

Now I know what you’re saying, “Hey man, we pirate because we hate the man. We wouldn’t have bought your app anyways. I pirate because I’m broke.” I know I’ve heard it all since before Napster and know very well that I’m not going to convince you to change your ways, but just hear me out for a second.

I don’t want to condone music, video game, or movie piracy, but you’re not hurting billion dollar giants like the MPAA or RIAA in this situation. Instead, you’re hurting me and my two college buddies. We’ve all given up any income from a job this summer, eaten Uncrustables or dollar menu food practically every meal, ignored our family, slept on couches after 15 hour work days, and practically given every aspect of our life away to this application for the last two months in hopes of chasing a some far’fetched dream. Then just when we see some glimmer of hope for success, you come along and put up a pirated copy of my application on some portal and have now taken 3816 (there goes another 100 or downloads in the ten minutes it took me to write two paragraphs) copies of Battery Go! from me.

I know that not every pirated copy translates to a sale, I know that piracy is a fact of life, I know that you probably don’t agree with what I’m saying. But let’s put this into perspective for a second with some math. So, right now we’ve had 3875 copies pirated (that number just keeps going up haha). Right now, we’re charging $0.99 per copy and make 70% of all revenue after Apple takes their administrative fees. That means we have a grand total of $2712.50 lost through piracy thus far. We have a three man team, so divide that number by three and you have $904.16 which you have taken from me directly. That’s pretty much more money than I’ve ever made in a month throughout my entire life and it was just taken from me in less than 5 hours. If you want, you can keep tacking on a couple extra dollars here and there as you scroll down and read the rest of this article because we’re at 3997 pirated downloads right now and who knows what that number will be by the time you read this.

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to guilt trip you into making a purchase. I understand that I’m not going to get that out of you and that’s totally fine with me. I’m part of this digital generation just like you are and I realize that piracy is a part of life which any business needs to learn to deal with if they want to ever be successful. However, I do want you to just think about my perspective and what it would be like if you were eating PB&J for 4 out of 5 meals just to save cash because you’re not making a dime through a 2 month development process and you don’t have a financially stable company to provide some cash upfront to help you cover expenses. Just realize that piracy doesn’t just hurt the big guy like Apple, the MPAA, or the RIAA. It hurts the college kid like myself who is counting on this kind of thing to provide rent and the occasional pizza.

So if by chance I’ve changed your mind and you realize that you can make a significant detrimental impact in my life through pirating my app, how can you help me out and maybe pay me back? Well, you could start by buying a copy of Battery Go! for the iPhone. However, that would be way beyond what I could ever ask from you and I don’t expect it. If you really want to help me out and you don’t want to give me a measley $0.99, you could always be a huge help and just spread the word about my application. No seriously, that would be the best thing in the world you could do. Write a blog post and review Battery Go!. Take some time out of your day to tweet about the app and include a link (preferably to the legitimate iTunes file). E-mail along to a friend and tell them how useful you think Battery Go! is. If you see one of your friends using an iPhone, tell them about this cool app that helps you see how much talk time you have left on your current charge. Digg up this article and help pass it along other social networks like Reddit or Stumbleupon. If possible, just do something just to help raise awareness that piracy does hurt the little guy like me. Again, I won’t be upset with you or hold any grudge against you if you’ve taken a copy of my product. I just want you to understand that I’ve given up a lot and put in a ton of hours so that you can enjoy an app like Battery Go!, and I would love for you to help spread the word to those law abiding citizens who may actually give me the dollar.

In conclusion, I’m not upset with you all of you internet pirates in the world. I just want you to see and comprehend that a fellow human who works hard just like you, and not some huge greedy corporate giant, is really suffering because of your decision to pirate my software. Don’t feel bad, don’t mail me a $0.99 check, don’t even think twice about your decision. Just help spread the word about this article or my app Battery Go!, and then I’ll go back to work making innovative software in hopes that there is justice in the world and I will receive some sort of reward for my hard work and dedication.

Thanks for your time Pirates, hope we can talk again soon. XOXO
-Cameron Banga

More about the Author: I’m Cameron Banga, marketing director for CollegeKidApp.com. When I’m not building iPhone apps, I’m a 21 year old college student from Indiana, USA. I’m a huge soccer fan, and right now am spending about 16 hours a day promoting Battery Go!

It leaked last week, but it didn’t take long for Microsoft to follow up with a legitimate download for interested testers: the download page for Microsoft Security Essentials (formerly Moro) is now live.

You’ll need to sign in with your Connect account or register for a new one to gain access to the download – for now. There will no doubt be hundreds of happy seeders sharing the Beta on torrent trackers later today.

Microsoft had originally slated only 75,000 spots for beta testers, though they have since announced that the number will be increased to accomodate demand. Interest will likely be high considering the generally positive reviews SE has generated since we first got our hands on it.

We’ve got a big gallery of screenshots of SE in action, including it detecting the trojan that I *ahem* intentionally left on my machine so I could test the program fully. I’ve been very happy so far with SE’s level of protection and low impact on system performance.

As we all know, Jailbird, the project to replace Winpwn has been on for a while. Latest news says that while Jailbird is ready as a program for 2.2.1 firmware, it may have to wait till Dev-Team releases xpwn, and the developer makes the changes in his program. Over to him:

Due to some major changes in 3.0 xpwn (the program Jailbird depends on) does not play nice. I am trying to see if xpwn will be updated by the Dev-Team. More news to follow.

UPDATE #1

In reply to my question: http://twitter.com/jailbird_dev/status/2252377765

I recieved an answer: http://twitter.com/planetbeing/status/2255252963

This is good news people.
Although for the numerous non believers out there, I am debating releasing a version of Jailbird that works with firmwares 2.0.0 to 2.2.1 until a new version of xpwn is released.

I’d like to hear some feedback on whether you would want this or wait until I can release a working 3.0.0 version.

redsn0w is an easy to use, multi-platform, multi-device jailbreaking and unlocking (iPhone 2G only) tool for theiPhone 2G (original iPhone), the iPhone 3G (but not the 3GS) and also the iPod touch (first and second generation). Currently it is available for Windows and Mac OS X (there are some issues using redsn0w with OS X PPC, please use an Intel Mac until we have this problem resolved).

REDSN0W PROVIDES SIMILAR FUNCTIONALITY TO QUICKPWN.

If you want to build custom firmware files with more flexibility it is suggested that you use ‘PwnageTool’ on Mac OS X.

1. GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use redsn0w right now. Ultrasn0w (the 3G carrier unlock) is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be released via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 carrier unlock works with this redsn0w release.
2. Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you will be able to get it via Cydia or Icy).
3. Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
4. Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
5. At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the latest version of redsn0w.
6. This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release
7. redsn0w will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
8. redsn0w WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch, iPod touch 2G and the iPhone 3G (not the iPhone 3GS).

To use redsn0w simply upgrade the device in iTunes to firmware version 3.0 and run redsn0w to activate and jailbreak the device (and if you are using an original iPhone 2G, it will unlock it too!)

Ultrasn0w for iPhone 3G is ready!

1. Ensure you have upgraded to iPhone OS 3.0
2. Jailbreak your iPhone 3G using redsn0w or PwnageTool (this will also install Cydia/Icy)
3. Run Cydia or Icy
4. Please add the repo repo666.ultrasn0w.com to Cydia or Icy. That last “o” is actually the number zero “0”! If you use the letter “o” you’ll get an error.
5. Search for ‘ultrasn0w’ in cydia or icy and install ultrasn0w
6. Reboot your iPhone 3G
7. T-Mobile USA users should disable 3G before using ultrasn0w
8. Enjoy

[Update:The special steps to enter DFU Mode are Very important, as DFU Mode alone is not enough to use custom firmware, giving you error:1600]Go through the following steps to Jailbreak your iPod Touch/iPhone on a PC:

4. Put your iPod in DFU Mode (Standard Method will not work). You may try getting into DFU familiar way, but will mostly get error 1600 or similar error. So use method below.

Note: You do not need to downgrade to iTunes 8.1 , continue using iTunes 8.2 and No need to downgrade your iPhone (ignore what others are saying)

a) Install QuickPwn RC3

b) Follow the process until you get to the white screen  (to use use QuickPwn RC3 you will need 2.0.2 firmware find files you need here and if you are using iPhone 2G you will need Boot loader Files)

Fire-up QuickPwn RC3 and select 2.0.2 firmware file you have downloaded earlier

Simply go to the next step after firmware checkes out, select location for modified firmware file (we will not need it, so you can junk it later on)

Use defaults, we just going through this process in order to get to DFU Mode

Connect your iPhone to USB cable, click next

Follow on screen directions

About this time, your iPhone’s screen will turn white (see pic)

c) Be quick as soon as you get to the white screen,  quit QuickPwn, fire up iTunes, no need to unplug USB cable.

Timing is everything, so make sure you have a timer. It will take you a few tries to get it right. If you performed the steps above correctly you will see this message in iTunes (it’ll automatically open):

5. Hold Shift and Click Restore

6. Select the file you just downloaded

Make sure to select correct file.

7. Let iTunes Work

That’s it! You’re running a jailbroken iPod Touch 3.0.

Note: You may get a 1601 or 1602 or 1600 or 1604 or 1605 error. If this occurs, you did not follow steps exactly.  You have to have white screen on our iPhone when connecting to iTunes.

If it does not work, Then just restore the data you backed up and try again.

iPod Touch/iPhone 2G & 3G Jailbreak has just been released by Dev-Team, but only the Pwnage Tool for Macs. Over to them:

This is the low down on our tools for use with the 3.0 firmware from Apple, read the whole post in full before attempting anything. Because of some bugs and unexpected changes this will be a multipart release, starting with the release of PwnageTool for Mac OS X. QuickPwn for Mac OS X and Windows will follow sometime soon, please don’t bug us about it, we are working flat out to get everything finished to release them.

1. GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use PwnageTool right now. UltraSn0w is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be release via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 unlock works with this PwnageTool release.
2. Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you can get it via Cydia or Icy).
3. Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
4. Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
5. At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the 3.0 capable version of PwnageTool.
6. This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release.
7. PwnageTool will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
8. PwnageTool WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch (1st Generation) and the iPhone 3G.

Baseband 101

The ‘baseband’ is the generic nickname given to the internal components of the iPhone that handle the phone calls and Internet access. This ‘baseband’ is a tiny and unique independent computer system that runs inside your iPhone, it is separate to the main system that handles the applications (such as email and google maps) and it talks to the main part of the phone over an internal communications network. Think of it like a cable modem or other peripheral that is attached to your home PC that needs occasional updates. When a software update is released and presented to you within iTunes the baseband is sometimes updated (to fix bugs or add new features). The 3.0 update for the iPhone 3G contains such an update, so running the vanilla updater straight away with iTunes will reprogram and update the baseband.

SIM Free/SP Unlocked/Factory Unlocked iPhone 3G

This applies if you bought your iPhone 3G for $$$$$$$. This model of iPhone 3G doesn’t have an Service Provider lock (aka factory unlocked) and you are able to put any SIM card into the phone and get service. Your phone is already unlocked so you do not need to worry about baseband updates, simply upgrade to 3.0 using iTunes and then use PwnageTool to create an ipsw and then use this to jailbreak your phone.

iPhone 2G (1st Generation)

Use PwnageTool to do the magic and then restore with iTunes using your newly created .ipsw ‘nuff said, you don’t need to worry about anything, the baseband will be unlocked, the phone jailbroken.

iPod Touch 1G (Original iPod Touch)

Use PwnageTool to create a firmware image and restore with that .ipsw using iTunes.

iPod Touch 2G (New iPod Touch)

Sorry, no support at this time within PwnageTool, use Redsn0w for an earlier (pre 3.0) firmware release instead.

iPhone fans got what they were waiting for June 8 when the third-generation model of Apple’s popular handset made its debut during theWWDC 2009keynote. The iPhone 3G S, which will hit stores June 19, promises a faster iPhone with an extended battery life, more memory, and improved features. It looks exactly the same as the previous model, but both the 16GB ($199) and new 32GB ($299) models will come in white and black versions.

Though the jump from the iPhone 3G to the 3G S isn’t quite as big as the jump from the first- to second-generation models, this latest handset still adds enough new features to make it a compelling upgrade for some users. And when you add in all the new features that will come with the iPhone OS 3.0(available June 17), we finally get an iPhone that can run thousands of snazzy applications and do something as basic as send a multimedia message.

Yet, we still have some concerns. A faster AT&T 3G network isn’t going to happen overnight, and some features, like tethering and the aforementionedmultimedia messaging, won’t happen right away. We also came away from the keynote without any mention of call quality, which, as any iPhone owner can tell you, remains far from perfect. But most importantly, the iPhone 3G S’s price will vary widely depending on your eligibility. If you can get it at the lowest prices, it’s worth your while. But if you’re not yet eligible for a discounted upgrade, we suggest that you wait.

Speed
Phil Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of worldwide product marketing, promised that iPhone 3G S (the “S” stand for speed) will be faster in a number of ways. Not only will a new processor enable it to load apps faster, but it will also utilize an upgraded AT&T 3G network for speedier Web browsing. We expected both of these improvements, so we’re not surprised that they are the new model’s prime selling points. I’ll start with the processor.

Schiller didn’t provide any hard metrics on the new processor, but he said that the 3G S would open applications two times faster than the previous two iPhones. Honestly, this isn’t something that we’ve been pining for–we would much prefer to get Palm Pre-style multitasking–but we’ll welcome it just the same. We’ll have to wait for a review model to see how much faster the 3G S is.

On the other hand, we’ve eagerly been awaiting zippier 3G speeds, so we’re glad to hear that they’re on their way. Here, too, Schiller was short on specifics outside of mentioning AT&T’s forthcoming HSPA network upgrade to 7.2Mbps. That is an important qualifier considering that AT&T won’t start rolling out the faster network until later this year. What’s more, full deployment is scheduled for 2011. Though we expect that urban areas will be first, coverage will vary widely for the next year, at least. As such, we don’t predict any miracles soon.

Battery life
Though battery life on the first iPhone was mostly satisfactory, the iPhone 3Gsucks up juice rapidly. Indeed, you’re lucky if your handset lasts longer than a day of heavy use. Luckily, the iPhone 3G S offers some hope. Schiller rattled off statistics that certainly sound promising. It should offer 9 hours of Wi-Fi battery life, 10 hours on video playback, 30 hours on audio playback, 12 hours 2G talk time, and 5 hours 3G talk time. Like with the processor, we’ll have to wait for our review unit to see if these ratings hold up, but we like what we’re hearing so far.

Camera
Up until now, the iPhone’s camera has been good, but far from great. Though picture quality is decent, camera editing features on the first two iPhones are nonexistent. The minimalist shooters bothered us so much that we began to worry if Apple was leading a new trend of “dumbing down” cell phone cameras.

The iPhone 3G S, however, has helped put some of those fears to rest. Apple boosted the camera’s resolution to 3 megapixels and it added an autofocus feature. In the future, you’ll also get settings for white balance, exposure, low-light sensitivity, and a macro mode for close-up photos. The autofocus feature appeared to work well during the keynote so we’re looking forward to testing it ourselves.

Video recording
When we last asked about video recording at the OS 3.0 announcementin March, Apple wouldn’t comment on whether it would come to the iPhone. So we have to admit that we weren’t expecting it to happen anytime soon. But thanks to its improved camera, the iPhone 3G S will offer the ability to record VGA clips at 30 frames per second. It also promises a nifty editing feature that will let you trim clips to your liking. And once you’re done, you can upload them to YouTube with just a couple of clicks. Again, it looked good onstage so we’re excited to check it out.

Voice Control
We’ve long berated Apple for not including voice dialing on the iPhone. So when we heard that it would be on the iPhone 3G S, our initial reaction was a cynical “it’s about time.” Yet, our hearts softened just the slightest bit when we saw that the new Voice Control feature will go far beyond just voice dialing and commands.

Sure, you’ll be able to dial a contact using your voice, but you’ll also be able to activate the iPod player by asking for a particular music track or artist. What’s more, you can use Voice Control to identify a song by name and you can ask to play related tracks (as they’re associated in the iTunes Genius feature). Seeing those additional features almost makes us forgive Apple for taking so long to add something as basic as voice dialing, but not quite.

Compass
We were a little skeptical when we heard that the new iPhone might offer a digital compass. Yet, Schiller confirmed that the rumors were true. Like any other compass it will automatically point to north, but it also will integrate with Google Maps to point you in the right direction. A nice touch, to be sure.

What didn’t we get?
Fortunately, this list is getting shorter with each incarnation of the iPhone. Though OS 3.0 adds many notable missing features like multimedia messaging, turn-by-turn directions and stereo Bluetooth, there are a few capabilities still lacking. Flash support for the Safari browser, app folders for the home screen and USB mass storage are just a few. And hey, though we know that we’ll never get it, we’ll throw in a user-replaceable battery too.

So should you buy it?
Like we said earlier, the iPhone 3G S offers some notable feature improvements, but it doesn’t offer quite the same leap that the iPhone 3G offered over the first-generation model. If you don’t own an iPhone yet, and you’ve been waiting around to see what happens, now is the time to go for it. The same goes for iPhone Classic owners who never made the jump to the iPhone 3G.

But, if you’re a current iPhone 3G owner, the answer isn’t so clear. If you’re eligible to upgrade at the cheaper prices ($199 or $299), then we suggest doing so, as long as you remember that a new two-year contract is required. If you own an iPhone 3G, but are not eligible for the upgrade yet, then we recommend waiting. As much as the iPhone 3G S brings, it’s not worth the extra $200 that both the 16GB and 32GB models will cost you. In the meantime, you will get the new OS 3.0 features when they’re released for the iPhone 3G on June 17. But not only that, you’ll have extra money to spend on apps.
