Shortly after the unveiling of the iPhone 3G S, the FCC has released the requisite approval documentation.

The iPhone 3G S builds on the iPhone 3G with a processor two orders of magnitude faster than the 3G, tri-band HSPA 7.2 support, GPS with built-in compass, voice control, support for modem tethering, Nike+ support, parental control support, remote device location, and MMS. In addition, iPhone 3G S has even longer battery life when used on 2G and Wi-Fi networks compared to the 3G along with native video recording and onboard video editing.
