Cut and paste while you eat your dinner

iPhone 3.0 with us from 6pm
|

The latest and greatest iPhone software update, version 3.0, will be rolling out at around 6pm (BST) today. The update arrives just ahead of Friday’s iPhone 3G S release, with the new Apple handset coming pre-installed with the 3.0 software.

Even if you’re sticking with your trusty iPhone 3G for the time being (which should be most non-rich/insane people) there’ll be a whole host of benefits from 3.0, as Stu pointed out in his recent article.

Here’s a full run-down of what existing iPhone users will be playing with over dinner this evening:

-Cut, copy and paste for text
-Landscape keyboard
-MMS texting
-Enhanced search feature
-Voice memos
-Improved calendar
-Improved web performance, including autofill
-Internet tethering (if you’ve paid for the privilege)
-Stereo Bluetooth
-Parental controls
-YouTube logins for synchronised bookmarking
-Bluetooth multiplayer
-Microtransactions/subscriptions for games
