2G vs 3G Iphone

I still have the first generation of Iphone and I am thinking if I should get the Iphone 3G during the Black Friday sale (I have been saving up and I have not been touching my Paypal account so I can shop at Buy.com during their sale period. LOL).

So what’s the difference between the Iphone 2G and the new Iphone 3G?

3G is a little bit bigger than the 2G but is lighter (3G weighs 133 g compared to 135g of the 2G version). The display for both 2G and 3G stays the same: 480 x 320 3.5" multi-touch display. They also have the same storage capacity at 8 GB and 16 GB and the camera resolution is still the same at 2.0 megapixel camera. As for the connectivity, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth is available for 2G while 3G has both connectivity available with the addition of 3G Internet connectivity that is faster when browsing the net.

Judging by the specifications, there is really not much difference between the 2 versions. The only improvement I can think of is the 3G internet connectivity which I rarely use anyways. So do you think it is worth it to upgrade?
