Umm ... wouldn't they NOT include it if they were saying 'fuck you' to the whiners?

Regardless, it's hardly whining. Should have been there day 1.

nah they'd stop saying fuck you and then fuck you... literally.

celebi23 · Mar 17, 2009

Oh shit!! Spotlight included in 3.0

Does the calendar thing mean I can sync google calendar? I'm not up to date on that stuff.

I think Google already does this via their own push system they implemented for contacts, calandar, etc.

Google already provides OTA calendar sync now for the iPhone.

Flick to the left from the home screen to get Spotlight UI.
Clever.

Epix · Mar 17, 2009

You can do that already using the google ap.

David Chartier: Talks about having over 100 apps on a phone, search is useful for this.

So we're definitely getting a hardware refresh with more storage!

Zozz · Mar 17, 2009

I didn't expect spotlight, nice thing to have.

donkeymonkey · Mar 17, 2009

Shake to shuffle coming to iPhone OS!

STEREO BLUETOOTH NOW SUPPORTED!

NYR · Mar 17, 2009

Shake to shuffle arrives on iPhone and iPod touch, nice nice.

Spotlight has an ugly interface, IMO.

16GB can easily store 100+ apps.

shake to shuffle is going to make the gym very interesting

By the time this firmware update is available, the iPhone will have been selling very well for almost two years. That's the definition of "need"? It's certainly nice to have it.

No, by all means the definition of "need" is whatever it takes to sell like cupcakes, so I take that back: it doesn't need copy paste. Heck, it doesn't even "need" a home button, why don't they just put it on the earbuds cord? Sales-wise it wouldn't make much of a difference.

I'm sure you can disable it in Settings. Wrapping up now. Come on One More Thing

Just thought that too. Probably need to be passed the lock screen to shake it.

"Safari will also remember login "

"YouTube app can now log into your account to share and save favorite videos, subscribe to channels, etc. "

w00t

Zozz · Mar 17, 2009

so wait, we can have our youtube account in the youtube app now?

Xater · Mar 17, 2009

Note synching is useful for me.

NYR · Mar 17, 2009

How epic would it be if they announce Flash support right here...

Hellsing321 · Mar 17, 2009

stereo Bluetooth! Finally!

krypt0nian · Mar 17, 2009

YouTube app can now log into your account to share and save favorite videos, subscribe to channels, etc.

Small but way cool.

cjdunn · Mar 17, 2009

Whoa he just dropped a ton of features:

Other good features: Notes Sync, audio/video tags, live streaming, shake to shuffle, Wi-Fi auto login, Stereo Bluetooth, LDAP, iTunes account creation, YouTube ratings, Anti-Philshing, Call Log, Parental Controls, Media Scrubber, OTA profiles, VPN on demand, Languages, YouTube subscriptions, YouTube accounts and Encrypted profiles. Also, auto-fills. The biggest addition here is probably Stereo Bluetooth A2DP support.

bionic77 · Mar 17, 2009

I love all the additions but I am definitely going to wait a day or two to download 3.0. Adding that much at once definitely has the potential to bloat and slow down the phone until 3.1.

Hopefully I am wrong, but I am going to be careful.

The first feature I disabled on my Nano. :lol

Still, they're delivering with this update.

NekoFever · Mar 17, 2009

YouTube profiles is nice to have. It's annoying to have to search on the iPhone for something that's bookmarked on my account or vice versa.

Release date plz?

KolosLazar16 · Mar 17, 2009

Looks like he's wrapping up. Pretty solid, but man I would kill for bluetooth tethering.

I was thinking the same. 3.0 is nice but I'm really looking forward to 3.1.
