In all chances I believe that Apple will unveil the 3G version of the iPhone during this years WWDC. But if you can’t wait till June 9th, here are spicy bits for you to feast upon.

Engadget got tipped off that the enterprise beta of the firmware has the "missing" magnifying glass-contact search feature that we saw during the iPhone SDK announcement earlier this year. There is also an inbox-like button that doesn’t seem to do anything. Apparently it shows meeting invites, with an icon badge that shows how many invites have been received.

I’m sure you will all agree on the fact that features in the UI are more obvious than the other newer features that are buried deep inside the iPhone software. The noted iPhone hacker Zibree found references to SGOLD3, a chip that would give the iPhone 3G capabilities. Electronista found a Greek iPhone-unlocking website reveal numerous textual clues about the firmware.

Other capabilities include GPS capabilities, a YouTube plug-in for mobile Safari, and Google411 integration. Pretty Cool eh!
