Sad news for some iPhone users... except George and myself (and Chris with his iTouch 3rd Gen)...

Only iPhone 3GS and the latest iPod touch will get multitasking. The 3G and 2nd gen iPod touch will get some stuff. iPhone EDGE is left out.

<-- Has only the 3G... BUT, I am up for an upgrade!

Lots of pros in the new OS, but no mention of the new hardware? Interesting...

That's because they're saving that for the next event.

No Biggie for me as I was planning on getting the nextgen Iphone anyways. So you 3Gs guys will have the "old" phone then.

Does anybody even have the edge version still?

How many events do they need?! They just had one for the iPad, what, like a month ago?

Stop dragging out the 'events' Apple and give us the goods we all know are coming!

It's a vicious cycle.. out with the old phone, in with the new, it's never ending!

Even though Luis has a 3GS and Chris a 3G, they're both on T-Mobile's Edge network. In other words, they're screwed with this new update.

I didn't see the iPad event, but did anybody ask in the Q&A about why there isn't a camera?

If not, it's strange that no one has asked today.

I can't remember if they asked, but I know it's been talked a lot since! My guess is that they are waiting for Gen 2... Like everything else Apple, they like to stagger their features... Otherwise, why upgrade?

You *can* use the iPhone as a camera for the iPad and they are coming out with a camera you can attach to it, but neither are what the consumer wanted...

I saw that in the Apple online store. I guess it's good for downloading pics off your camera, but to use it to take pics will require 3 arms!

I think the Ipad would be real useful for someone like Ray. He'd be able to snap pics and show his customers the results on a very nice display.

I drooled over that in my office earlier.

The story they posted yesterday was absolutely incredible.

It might be a loooong time before a true 4G network is available. Probably be up to an iPhone 5 or 6 by then.

A co-worker of mine at Boeing (then McDonnell Douglas) was a mechanic on the assembly line. He told me they got bussed in every morning, no windows, to some undisclosed hanger.. worked their shift, then bussed back to the parking lot.

Not even the workers knew where these planes were being built.

George, Brian, Luis, check your email for install party invite.

I bought the 32g wifi version the 3G version won't be out till the end of April. I filled it with a bunch of movies, it will work great on the airplane. the battery is incredible!!! my net book would die after 2 or 3 hours, but this thing just keeps on going, I have used it for two days and the battery is still at 90%
