CNET Networks site TechRepublic runs a regular series called "Cracking Open" in which it takes a look inside a variety of gadgets. CNET News is publishing this excerpt of a photo gallery that takes on Apple's iPhone 3G.
From the front, the iPhone 3G looks nearly identical to the original iPhone, which we cracked open in 2007. Here you see the screen, speaker, and Home button.
According to Apple's technical specifications, the iPhone 3G is 4.5 inches high, 2.4 inches wide, and 0.48 inches deep. It weighs 4.7 ounces. The phone's Multi-Touch display offers 480-by-320-pixel resolution at 163 ppi. The iPhone 3G is almost identical to the original iPhone in size and weight.
The iPhone 3G has an accelerometer, proximity sensor, and ambient light sensor.
