More iPhone 3G Photos, and Side by Side with Original iPhone

BoyGeniusReport managed to get their hands on a iPhone 3G and posted a gallery (mirror) with some good quality photos of the new iPhone. Unfortunately their iPhone has not been activated so little else could be revealed.
While we've covered iPhone 2.0 firmware screenshots in the past, WinSuperSite has compiled (one, two, three) an extensive gallery of photos of the iPhone 2.0 Firmware and installation process.
The iPhone 3G will become available on July 11th internationally. Apple is also expected to release the 2.0 Firmware for the original iPhones at that time.
Update: Video unboxing of the iPhone 3G.

There's nothing wrong with Apple going the plastic route. I don't see what's the complaining about the plastic all about.
Why is the white iPhone 3G so hard to get to see on these early releases? :rolleyes:
It's always black that shown. :rolleyes:

The white iPhone 3G sort of looks like an aluminium iPhone to me.

Am I the only one disappointed that Apple basically went backwards with its design? It sounds shallow, but I'm seriously considering not upgrading because I think the 1st gen iPhone looks SO much better than the new one... *sigh*

Personally I prefer the look of the original iPhone, IMO the iPhone 3G looks cheap. I'm also afraid that the plastic will scratch easily, like the 5G iPods.
