According to the company, the iPhone will offer the following battery life, depending on your use:

  • Phone talk time: 8 hours
  • Video playback: 7 hours
  • Internet surfing: 6 hours
  • Audio playback: 24 hours (wow!)
  • Phone standby time: 250 hours

All of these figures improve dramatically over early rumors that the iPhone would suffer from sub-par battery life. Assuming these hold up in real world applications, most of the numbers are downright impressive, especially the 24 hour audio playback. As is always the case with battery life stats, YMMV.

In case you’ve been living under a very large rock, the iPhone will hit Apple and AT&T Stores at 6pm on June 29th, and I’m sure some über-Apple-geeks (and eBay capitalists) will start lining up any day now.

Funny thing is… I’m pretty sure I’ve been a customer of all of these companies at one point or another.

With all of the excitement about Steve Jobs’ new baby, I think there’s a good chance these things will be going for more than retail on eBay for the first few months.
