iPhone OS 3.0 is coming, preview on March 17th


Recommended Posts

landscape keyboard, MMS, copy and paste, email multiple photos... nice to finally have this stuff.. but really should have been around since 1.0.. weird they get applauses for it all

And they call themselves "Journalists". Hope they all packed Kleenex and a change of underwear.

Does anyone know roughly when 3.0 will be ready, is it June/July?

There MIGHT be an announcement at the very end of the press release. Should be very soon, Apple loves to tease people and launch stuff suddenly.

It looks complete and ready to ship

What will it be useful for, though? Because it's not hard to find things on the iPhone's home screen(s) as it is now, unless Spotlight lets you search the Internet or something.

Searching mail messages (including imap), searching for a program to launch that's located somewhere in your 8 homescreens, search for a specific song/video you want to play, etc.

iPhone OS 3.0 will be available this Summer. A free update to all of our iPhone 3G customers. And it works on the original iPhone. Now the hardware has changed between these two devices. For instance, A2DP and MMS won't be available on the iPhone 1st gen. It's also available for the iPod touch... for $9.95."

stereo bluetooth and MMS not available for 1st gen iphone ???

    • Where is the "Wow!" emoji? This'll have to do 🤩
    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
    • If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
