Today Apple announced and detailed their new iPhone (and presumably iTouch - EDIT: 9.99 for iTouch upgrade, free for iPhone as usual) firmware version, 3.0. This new firmware version will bring several new (desired!) features to the iPhone which will allow it to become what many consider the ultimate smartphone on the market. Announced today, 3.0 will bring copy & paste, MMS, Search functionality, Voice memos, Downloadable Content (paid apps only, so no free DLC if I'm interpreting it correctly), Maps API support for applications (meaning turn-by-turn is a go!!), Push Notifications (finally!) w/ in-game voice support and even support for accessory manufacturers to create custom apps to go along with their accessories.
New Features:
- Copy and Paste across applications
- MMS
- Search Functionality
- Landscape support in native iphone applications (finally!!)
- Voice memos (app)
- DLC for paid applications
- Maps API Support (Turn-by-Turn is on its way)
