Is there a diff in the new iphone versus previous version (development perspective)?

If I get an iphone, should I go for the latest version (with the antenna issue) or can I make do just fine with the previous version?

i.e. are there significant O/S changes that will effect my ability to test and run an iphone application?

The iPhone 3G can't do multitasking. If you want to test your app's multitasking capabilities, you'll need at least an iPhone 3GS or the latest generation of iPod Touch.

A previous version (3g or 3gs) can still run the latest O/S (4.0.2), the only things truly different programmatically for the iPhone 4 is the higher pixel count and resolution of the screen, the new camera, and the new/improved gyro/accelerometer.
