Apple’s been pretty tight lipped with the specs of their new iPhone 3G S but a leak from T-Mobile Netherlands indicates a juiced up 600MHz CPU and 256MB of RAM (up from the 412MHz/128MB RAM iPhone 3G). Combined with 3G S’s new PowerVR SGX graphics chip with Open GL ES 2.0, one can expect some pretty spectacular graphics crammed into a mobile phone. In other words, if you love gaming on your iPhone, you’ll definitely want to pick this up.

Pre-orders for the iPhone 3G S will be available today (approx 5pm ET)  from AT&T’s retail stores or a bit later on their online store. The benefit of this is that AT&T will open their retail stores at 7am on June 19th exclusively for those who have pre-ordered. So for those gadget freaks, now is the time to grab the ‘ol sleeping bag and camp until the 19th.

On a side note, the $99 iPhone 3G will be available today.
