Correct me if I’m wrong but there’s only been two generations of the iphone… the 1st generation and the 2nd generation 3g iphone. 3G is a type of network… not 3rd generation iphone. So what the hell is a 2g iphone? if there’s a 2g where’s the G(1g) iphone?
There really is no 2g iphone.
The first iphone supported an EDGE wireless data connection. EDGE is the 2nd generation of wireless data connectivity. So some people may be referring to that.
The iphone 3g (which is a stupid name as it confuses people) refers to the ability to connect on a 3rd generation wireless network. so the iphone 2g could also refer to the iphone 3g.

I keep seeing Sprint commercials saying they have the only 3g network..but, then I saw a Verizon commercial saying the same thing. Why does it matter and what the heck is it?
3G allows customers of 3G optimized networks with 3G compatible phones to surf the internet on the phones faster, and allows for somewhat better phone service/call quality.
It matters only if use the internet on your phone regularly.
Sprint is not the only carrier with 3G. AT&T, Verizon and others have 3G service. Please do not forget that commercials are aimed to glorify the company and/or its product and usually hide the truth.
The whole 3G craze was boosted when the new iPhone 3G came out. It is not that dire to have.
