Apple Inc. said the battery on its iPhone mobile device would let users talk three hours longer than planned, raising prospects of a successful debut next week.
The battery will provide as much as eight hours of talk time on one charge, more than rival phones, Apple said.
The iPhone, a combination mobile phone and iPod media player that will cost as much as $599, also offers six hours of Internet use, seven hours of video playback or 24 hours of audio playback.
