iPhone OS 3.0 is going to be unveiled on March 17 in an Apple event. Will the new OS be ready for the rumored 10 inch touchscreen iPhone tablet? We will find out at an invitation-only event about the new SDK and get a sneak peek at the iPhone OS 3.0 software. The event takes place at Apple, Building 4, Town Hall on March 17 at 10:00 a.m.
The following are some wish list iPhone feature users are clamoring beyond the obviously lacking CUT and PASTE feature. Hopefully some of it, if not all, will be addressed by the new version.
• Multitasking gestures, like the Palm Pre
• Background app running, like the Palm Pre
• App store submission fees, or some way to limit app store spam, like Microsoft's planned app store
• MMS - I don't care about this, really, but you might
• Video recording
• Voice dialing and text-to-speech caller ID
• Better software support for phone-related stuff, like optionally adding "Favorites" or "Recents" to home screen (and improved voice quality if possible)
• Bluetooth stereo streaming, like the Palm Pre
• Bluetooth file transfer and storage
• Bluetooth/Wi-fi sync, like the Zune
• iLife and iWork Mobile for editing docs and multimedia on the phone itself
• SPEED - The OS gets really sluggish after using it for awhile
• A completely new or refreshed UI - There's something to be said for meaningless but thoughtful design refreshes
• Big keyboard support and bulk delete in every app
• Flash support in browser
• iTunes app management
• Popups and notifications that don't interrupt your current activity, like the Palm Pre
Now before the Palm Pre hit the market, maybe Apple will try to cushion it out with the new iPhone OS 3.0. We will try to get a scoop and tell you all about it.
