I take it that is only if you get a 3 year contract with it?

Yeah, well 2 year since I think that's in the US and I think they get their phones with 2 year contracts, but I could be misremembering.

Faster camera app loading. It's stupid but it's awesome. I don't know how many "moments" I've missed capturing because I've been waiting for the camera app to load.

You're that easy huh?

I really like that you can use + volume button to take a picture now. Hitting the screen was awkward.

Mark as read and flag in mail. Someone on here was complaining about that a little while ago.

Why was it awkward? You should see how many awesome pictures I have of my thumb.

iMessage!

iOS gets its own Ping-like service.

iMessage. If I didn't already have a plan with 2500 text messages I'd care.

ETA: Actually I think I pay for MMS, I'm assuming you can send pics over iMessage?

ETA2: Yup. Yay.

I found myself getting blurry pictures. I'd set up the phone like I would a camera, then move of my fingers over to the screen to take a shot. My fingers were already resting on the volume buttons...might as well use em!

Aren't the plans called "Text and Picture messaging"? If you're with the big 3 I don't think you should have to pay for MMS.

Holy crap. iPad mirroring to TV over AirPlay and WiFi iTunes sync!

Edit: Ooo... I get a developer seed today!
Edit: "Supports iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPad and iPad 2, 3rd and 4th generation iPod touch."

I was sarcastically agreeing with you. I should have said pictures of my middle finger. By the time I look away from the screen to try and find the shutter button, my middle finger drifts in front of the lens.
