The new firmware is coming with loads of other new features - too many to mention here, but here are some highlights taken from the press release:
- Cut, copy and paste
- MMS
- landscape view for Mail, Text and Notes
- stereo Bluetooth
- syncing Notes to the Mac® and PC
- shake to shuffle
- parental controls for TV shows
- movies and apps from the App Store
- and automatic login at Wi-Fi hot spots

if your an ipod touch user the update wont be free :( it will be $9.95
I'm an iPod Touch user and the update will be free. Not that my uncle works for Apple, but torrents are my friends.
APPLE is gay as fuc*, money greedy bitc*
they're gonna make you pay for an update (i thought updates were posed to be free and dont give me any of that "its worth it" shi*, cause it aint)
and ppl who pay for it are gay as fuc* too
Before you go mouthing off like that stop and consider if what someone has posted here is the truth.
I can see that is possibly could be true, Apple like many companies probably pay someone for libraries to communicate via bluetooth. As up until now bluetooth would have been left disabled in ipod Touches apple would have paid nothing to said company for bluetooth on the iPhone touch. Now if they're going to enable it they will have to pay said company for each person that activates bluetooth on their iPod touch.
Microsoft did a similar thing for mp4 playback on the 360 they pay a company x dollars and/or cents for each perso nthat downloads the "optional" mp4 playback software. The difference is MS planned it that way from the start and you're already paying for that "optional" update when you buy the 360.
For apple unfortunately they've had to change horses mid stream because they realised hey you know what bluetooth isn't dead and people are jailbreaking devices to get things like ibluetooth.
The alternative is just to release a separate firmware update sans bluetooth for ipod touch, but I imagine that wouldn't make people very happy either. I think you'll find apple have done the right thing for all concerned here, $10 isn't alot of money for an individual. Again though has anyone from apple even confirmed that ipod touch users have to pay?
Where is a good site for free torrents?
Where is a good site for torrents??
because if you look here
http://live.gizmodo.com/page/2/
it clearly says that the update will be 9.95 for ipod touch users
torrents are free. period.
What an idiot, thinks people are homosexual for paying for an update. Unlike Micro***** which steals the money from you (Xbox Live), Apple asks for it for developing a great bit of software plus, Apple is for the rich, not the poor dropouts like youself.
Nice, the only thing I dont approve of is the parental crap. Apple is getting out of hand with ageism ever since Mac OS X Tiger and if I had an iPhone, that would be my excuse to pirate this. Either way, it has some really nice things in it.
this article is lacking one REALLY important feature
It will finally have push notifications and meebo will have a specific app made for the iphone.
watch the keynote its really interesting and makes you glad to have an iphone3g
I just hope Apple ports their App store Dev kit to windows. I might actually be able to do something helpful woth thpse new API's.
