There's many new features that have been added to the iPhone 3gs that are worth noting. Externally they are identical, meaning you can use the same hardware, and cases with them, but internally is a different story.
The 3gs adds
- Improved camera - 3mp with autofocus (still no flash)
- Video recording
- New graphics chip (PowerVR SGX)
- 600mhz processor (vs 412mhz)
- Double the ram (256mb)
OS 3.0 adds:
- Cut, copy, paste
- MMS
- Tethering
- landscape keyboard
- Voice memos
- Improved calendar
- Stereo Bluetooth
- Auto Wi-fi login
- Safari improvements
- Shake to shuffle
- Compass
- Push notifications
- Spotlight search (local search engine)

You said Compass..to what are you refering too?MMS and Tethering really? I havent been about MMS unless its an App from the App store, and as for the tethering..I haven't been able too use that..since there isnt a Button for it. I've heard that there's a Way too enable it..BUT...it takes a Bit too do.

I am a 3G owner, and I don't feel there's enough in the newer model to pull me up for an upgrade.

I like my 3G..It's Fast NEVER freezes.. and that's with 6 PAGES OF APPS!!!!+ it's jail broken and I have a few things THAT the 3.0 update should in MY opinion allow the user to delete All SMS instead of Just one at a time..WHICH is TIMELY IF u receive A LOT of TXT...BUT lucky for me I have an App called Clear SMS WHICH is a Jail broken App..+ also an App called Mem tool WHICH is kinda like a Hard Drive cleaner.

Yes, they used the same "shell" for the phone. The only physical difference that is noticeable is the information on the back of the phone Also, all iPhone 3GS' come with the 3.0 iPhone OS installed. This includes the landscape Mail, Contacts, Notes, and Messages, the Spotlight Search, Cut, Copy & Paste, Voice Memos, etc. Because it is a 3GS, it also comes with a built in COmpass and video recorder/editor

the 3gs is faster that's about it
i can't think of any other reason to get it
not less than a year ago i bought the 3g and now you can get the 3gs with more memory for the same amount

You can actually go to cnet.com and check out their test trials compared to the 3 g and 3gs. Plus they will compare other phones from other carriers against the iPhone.
