An iPhone is incorporated with the Wi-Fi technology which allows the user to access the web in the most comprehensive manner. The iPhone uses the AT&T's EDGE network and thus allows the user to move to a 3G presentation which is available in the new feature of the iPhone.

The iPhone uses an operating system which is based on the Mac OS X- which is the present standard maintained at Apple. This platform is an improved feature which includes voicemail and better web browsing capabilities for use.

The iPhone basically uses the Wi-Fi technology, but when out of the coverage area, the gadget uses the older version of the EDGE network. Though this feature was found to be slow at times of the launch, the improved version of EDGE network allows faster transfer of bytes, thus making internet surfing better and easier on the iPhone. Amazingly, the web browser of the phone displays the full webpage- rather than simplified displays as in other available smart phones.

Pages appearing on the screen of an iPhone can be zoomed in and out which requires tapping. This feature is extremely facilitating as the web pages on the iPhone appear in a portrait or a landscape mode: as desired by the observer.

With an initiative from Apple- Google has applied to serving modified versions of the Google maps a listings, which has been specifically generated for the use in iPhones which again uses a path breaking technology. iPhone works with the most popular email systems as on date. This includes the services of Yahoo mail, Gmail, AOL and .Mac Mail and then is further well supported by standard POP3 and IMAP email systems.

The gadget even allows the user to synchronize the email accounts into the phone making this the ultimate piece of technology to travel with.

One unpublicized feature introduced by Apple's latest iPhone software updates is the ability to save Web apps to the home screen and have them launch in full-screen mode without the Safari wrapper, essentially mimicking the experience of a native app.

Clancy, an AppleInsider reader who brought the matter to our attention, believes the undocumented feature arrived as part of the most recent iPhone Software 2.1 update. He notes that the capability is only present in Web applications specifically authored to include the full-screen code.

To illustrate the feature, he's created a demo application for iPhone users to try out. In order to trigger the full-screen mode, follow these steps:

* Load the demo app in Safari on your iPhone
* Hit the "+" button at the base of the Safari app
* Select "Add to Home Screen"
* Save the App to the Home Screen
* Tap the icon that was just saved to your Home Screen
* The demo App should load in full screen without the Safari wrapper.


Once the app is loaded in full-screen, it behaves just like a native app acquired from the App Store, though it may perform slightly slower as all the resources and interface elements are being downloaded in real-time over the Internet.

You can even pull the interface down (screenshot, below) like a native app without the Safari interface coming into play.
