>> What's up Prizefight fans! I'm Brian Tong. Over here, I have a competitor with a lot of muscle apparently. And we're here to actually do a face-off between the iPhone 3G the new sleek, sleek one versus the original iPhone--the old crusty one right.

>> WWDC fans, they remember that Steve Jobs did his own speed test of the iPhone 3G versus the first generation iPhone. And with that, we put that to the test--now they're both in the real word.

>> Of course! Of course!

>> I've got my old school.

>> New school baby. Let's do it, let's do it! Okay.

>> We have an official referee with some official time pieces. Mine is a little more old fashion than your time piece

>> Obviously!

>> All right! Go ahead and count us in, sir.

>> Gentleman, on your marks, set, go! [ Background Music ]

>> Start up pretty even and actually I jumping up--well.

>> Here we go.

>> Okay, there.

>> Here we go.

>> All right I got graphics. I got graphics okay. I have more, you have no graphics. No, you just got your banner.

>> I got my banner. Hey, it's so bad.

>> All right. Cool, I'm halfway done.

>> It's uhmm...it's on--

>> My graphics.

>> I got graphics.

>> Yeah, you're gonna slide right now

>> I got some graphics. Sure.

>> You are definitely old school to it.

>> All about graphics.

>> Well then, what do we got, what do we got?

>> Here we go. I wanna let you know the older crustier may go first

>> Thank you; 53 seconds under a minute

>> 53 that's pretty good. How about 30.9--bump like that.

>> Not that big of a difference.

>> That's not even twice.

>> Seriously.

>> All right. Well the Prizefight settled it right here. The iPhone 3G is sleeker, faster sexier versus the older, crustier, slower speed.

>> Not that much of a difference really right? All right.

>> No I'm not even talk about it. Mine is hotter. All right! Thanks for watching guys and we'll catch you next time on another Prizefight. You know what time it is for?
