iPhone OS 3.0 Update

Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

It’s here, it’s here, it’s finally here! On June 17th (which is today) all iphones can upgrade their OS to the new OS 3.0 version. What does that mean for us iphone addicts? Well, it means a number of new features:

1. Cut, copy, and paste: Absolutely been missing this feature. We now have cut/copy/paste functionality can move words, paragraphs, and links.

2. Copy/paste photos: Multiple photos can be moved into emails. Woot!

3. Spotlight: iPhone 3.0’s new search feature for music, contacts, email, and more. I don’t know what I’d do without Google search and now I can effectively search my iphone. Finally no more wasting time thumb surfing through my inbox.

4. MMS: Multimedia messages can be sent over the iPhone…if your carrier supports it. AT&T is lame. LAME. AT&T users have to wait until the end of summer to use MMS, although it should come with your standard text messaging plan. Still lame.

5. Tethering: The iPhone 3.0 supports tethering with laptops and other devices, so that you can get Internet on-the-go. It won’t come cheap, however, so we’re not sure how many of us will be using this (without a jailbreak).

6. Downloadable Movies and TV Shows: The iPhone’s iTunes store will now have movies and TV shows you can buy and/or rent. There will also be audiobooks and educational content to download. Hum, awesome. Now I can listen to Twilight on the go.

7. CalDAV Support: There will be better Calendar syncing as the iPhone 3.0 moves beyond the iCal/ics format and supports CalDAV, which is used by Google, Yahoo, and others. Syncing with your Google Calendar should now be possible. I know we could already Google Sync but there were limitations. Now we can sync more. Hooray for centralized data source!

8. Landscape for Mail and Notes: That tiny virtual keyboard can be a pain, so iPhone 3.0 allows you to go to landscape mode in the Mail and Notes apps. This makes typing out an email both faster and less mistake-riddled. I always thought it was a bit strange we could landscape for our browser but not for email? When I first got the phone, I would shake the phone because I thought it was user error (blush).

9. Voice Memos: There is a new application joining the iPhone line-up, and it allows you to record your to-dos or even spy on your buddies.

10. YouTube Login: I’m not a big YouTube fan but I can image many YouTube fanatics thinks this is the best thing since sliced bread.

11. Push Notifications: Finally, you’ll know when your get a new IM message. Apps can send you messages even when not running. Woot! I hated how I’d miss my messages. Boo on iphones not being able to run parallel apps.

12. Find my iPhone: You can ping your phone even if it’s on silent mode. You can also lock and wipe your iPhone from afar to protect the data.

13. Shake to Shuffle: Yep, if you get sick of a song, shake your iPhone like mad and something new will come up. Three cheers for accelerometer-based commands!

Now you ask, how to update to your fabulous new iphone?

1. Connect your iphones to itunes 8.

2. When itunes opens up, select your iphone under “devices”

3. in the iphone summary pane, click “check for updates”

4. click download and install. do not disconnect your phone until the updates have finished

It’s really that simple.  What? you need a visual? sure!

iPhone OS 3.0 update

Well enjoy readers. I’ll be upgrading my software tonight. Happy surfing!

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Lately, I’ve been getting daily requests from readers asking for the MAC Cosmetics Friends and Family Sale I posted last year.

Their Sumo Sale is WAY better than their Friends and Family. Save 25% (the F&F was only 15%) off your MAC Cosmetics online purchase.
