Apple CEO Steve Jobs called it "the biggest leap since the original iPhone,"  as he introduced the iPhone 4.

The iPhone 4 will come in two colors and two models - the 16GB that will sell for $199 and the 32 GB, selling for $299. Both models require a two-year AT&T contract to get those prices.

The biggest change with the iPhone 4 is FaceTime, offering real-time video calling anywhere there is wi-fi, with no setup required. However, the person you are calling will also need an iPhone 4 for the service to work.

The wi-fi requirement also limits its use. The cellular networks currently don't support the technology, though Jobs said the company is currently talking with cellular providers to offer the feature.

The iPhone4 will also record HD video. It also has built-in video editing, so that you can produce a movie, right on the phone.

Apple has also upgraded the iPhone's camera system. The iPhone 4 features a five megapixel camera and a sensor to detect backlighting. It comes with 5X digital zoom, tap to focus, and LED flash.

The auditorium was packed with Apple enthusiasts who cheered Jobs' every announcement.
