Apple Posts 38 Minute Guided Tour Video for iPhone 3G

Lackluster wireless providers and the people petitioning them aside, the iPhone 3G is en route and will arrive in 10 days time. Apple has in turn posted a new Guided Tour video of the new handset, the full version of the tutorial running 38 minutes and covering a wide variety of topics such as making calls, taking photos, managing contacts and watching video.

While most of it's redundant to owners of the 2.5G iPhone, it's worth a gander. If you don't feel like watching the entire thing, iPhone 3G-specific content can be viewed through the "What's New" feature, which has been trimmed down to 10 minutes and only addresses the new hardware and software functions of the upgrade.

According to MacNN, the truncated clip highlights the use of GPS within Google Maps, Microsoft Exchange support and options as well as support for Asian languages. A large segment mentions Apple's upcoming App Store and the ability to download programs directly from and to an iPhone. Visitors to the App Store will be able to check for software updates from their phone, or receive notifications automatically.

If you watch the video and something strikes you, let us know over in the comments or forums.
