I think this will be interesting for many techies here. iPhone 3.0 will officially support tethering, and also have copy-paste. The push support will enable an entirely new class of exciting applications previously impossible. Push is a way to have an app wait for an external event and then do something as a result. The possibilities are endless....

Apple's excuse for taking so long for copy/paste is that there were "security concerns" - I suppose copy/paste of arbitrary data - rather than just text - would break the sandbox for applications. Makes sense in hindsight though I don't see how they would get around that. Apparently a simple text copy/paste wasn't good enough for Apple...

A2DP Stereo bluetooth was what got my attention. Now if they fix Itunes so that when importing pictures to the Iphone, they dont' get resized to a crappy resolution I might have to get one of them Iphones.

I still won't count out a next generation Iphone being announced. June is still a long way to go.

I think they'll come out with new hardware in June too. Since nothing was announced about different display resolutions, probably the same form factor with some new and improved hardware.

LOL about the resizing of pictures I just hate that too. I guess you can email yourself high res images...

Yes, it does seem very likely that a new Iphone is on the way.. OLED might be a possiblity.

I did get a chance to play with the Iphone a while back and I was so desperate I renamned all the comic images according to the camera roll files.. This actually works and lets you view all the pictures at full resolution, but the downside is that it's time consuming(even with batch rename) and there is no organizing them, or thumbnails.
