iPhone OS 3.0 Released

At 6pm this evening, Apple released iPhone OS 3.0. I couldn't wait to get home - I thought their server would turn to jelly, but it was fine.

Anyone else? I'm loving the new features.

Of course you are, Seb.

Sebby · Jun 17, 2009, 19:52:48

Cut, copy and paste, Spotlight search, MMS, and landscape keyboard across all apps are the main ones, and really good changes.

I forgot to mention, you'll need to ensure you have the latest iTunes (8.2) to get this update.

Rik · Jun 17, 2009, 19:54:04

Not to mention an iPhone, of course.

I've downloaded it to my iPod Touch, seems very good, liking the search feature and shake to shuffle.

Just waiting for Friday to come, along with my new iPhone 3GS 8)

I've updated mine

o2 says to text MMS to 1010 for finishing setting up MMS, i've done it and not got nothing back from them like it says!!

I blame BT, Paul.

Steve · Jun 17, 2009, 20:19:18

Are you still using the simplicity sim Paul and have you got picture messaging to work?

Yeh i'm still using the simplicity sim, had to change a few settings after doing the update to get the internet back on my phone.

I've not tried MMS yet, will let you know when i do.

Thanks Paul,still wondering whether to buy or lease. I do enjoy the value of the simplicity sim £20/month and unlimited web data.

psp83 · Jun 17, 2009, 20:47:13

Thats why i bought a pay&go phone. iPhone tariffs are rubbish.

I can send MMS even though iPhone says its failed but i can't receive yet. I'll phone o2 tomorrow to find out whats going on and what settings i need to use. I have to admit, the iPhone/Simplicity support on o2 is quite good.

I'm getting my new iphone on Friday woo!

All on the BlackBerry already.

Except, I don't know what Spotlight Search is.

Lance · Jun 17, 2009, 22:18:40

From what i know, its the search tool on the mac which appears to work in a similar way to the search box on the start menu in vista.

There's a huge backlog according to O2's Twitter.

Blackberry? Don't make me laugh.

Ooo, that sounded very bitter, Seb.

Does the new 3gs have a place so you can slot a maglite on on the side to take pictures in the dark? I suppose you could also say it has flash-lite support then as well
