New iPhone 3.0 OS: thorough feature investigation

Following the release of the iPhone 3.0 a lot of people have been referring to MacWorld’s guide to the iPhone 3.0 software update, however we feel it is extremely long winded and feel the review on PCWorld’s website is well worth checking out.

The main updates worth mentioning are that texts can now be viewed and written in landscape mode, also when checking recent calls and voicemail listings a lot more information is available without having to check the separate details screen, There are a few other mentionable updates worth touching on quickly, such as being able to encrypt your iPhone backup which is great for obvious security reasons and also the possibility of listening to your own music whilst playing your favorite games see here.

A lot of the other changes made are purely from a usability point of view for a full run down of these please check the review previously mentioned.
