Apple iPhone 3G Declared Wi-Fi Certified

The iPhone 3G is now Wi-Fi CERTIFIED, according to the Wi-Fi Alliance. What this means for end-users is that the device has been tested for security and the ability to interoperate with other Wi-Fi devices. AT&T's 3G cellular network provides improved voice quality and data speed for new iPhone, but a Wi-Fi connection is still faster. And, as many are finding out, Wi-Fi (although itself a power hog) won't drain the iPhone's battery as quickly as 3G.
