We're not saying how, but we got hooked up with the beta of iPhone OS 3.0. Overall, things feel about the same, until you flick left that extra time and hit the Spotlight screen, which works just as advertised. It's definitely a beta, though: things are laggy all around and some things just don't work, like taking a photo directly in the MMS app. We took some quick snaps, check 'em out below and let us know what you want to see in the video!

all rejoice, copy paste is here

though seriously i wonder if this will do well to boost the iPhone's market share in the smartphone / PDA market... am i the only one thinking Apple should be making more varieties of iPhones?

Not to hate on Apple or anything (which I do not because I own a couple of macbooks) but I really like my HTC Touch more. I just like that I can customize it so much.

Yay, now the iPhone is growing up!

Provided apple doesn't somehow nerf iPhone OS 3 between now and release(Possible for any OS developer to do), the iPhone will finally be worthy of being called a smartphone...even if it's screen does turn into a nasty smudgefest after a month. Not that I'd buy one...I need keys so I don't end up with a smudgescreen, and AT&T's phone service here...well..frankly, it sucks big hairy monkey tits. But atleast they're improving it.
