As many of you know, the much anticipated iPhone 4 was announced recently in San Francisco. Aside from it being leaked a few months back, and then Steve Jobs not being able to connect to the Wi-Fi (highly entertaining), there were still some really cool new features announced.

Apple, which has delivered a new iPhone every year since it first came out, sees the fourth-generation device as "the biggest leap" in design and functionality in three years. Here are the iPhone4 tech specs.

The top four features announced about the new iPhone 4:

1. The iPhone 4 is thinner, with higher resolution and a front-facing camera (with a flash!). It sports a new type of glass and a stainless-steel band that Apple says is designed to improve network reception. The resolution on the new phone is now 960 by 400 pixels, up from 480 by 320 in all previous iPhones. The camera is now 5 megapixels, which will deliver more detail, and this is the first iPhone with an LED flash (finally!).

2. Two cameras! New video program: FaceTime, will be limited to Wi-Fi networks for now. That means customers won’t be able to make video calls using AT&T Inc., the exclusive U.S. wireless carrier for the iPhone. And while the phone can tap fourth-generation networks, that technology won’t be ready from AT&T until the middle of next year.

For video, the camera is now capable of 720p resolution — and Apple is offering a slick-looking $4.99 version of its iMovie app that lets you edit movies right on the phone.

3. The new operating system iOS 4. This new operating system supports features such as multitasking (the ability to run more than one application at the same time). Jobs said yesterday that there are more than 225,000 apps available. The company has paid out more than $1 billion to developers, who get a 70 percent share of the programs sold through the store, he said.

I do love my iPhone … now if only I could actually get good AT&T reception. A girl can dream, right?!
