Apple senior vice president of iPhone software Scott Forstall used Monday's WWDC keynote to deliver the news that iPhone users have waited months to hear: The new iPhone 3.0 OS will be released on June 17, 2009.
iPhone 3.0 will be a free release for all iPhone customers -- both original iPhone users and iPhone 3G users will be able to download it at no charge once it's released. iPod touch customers can download the new release for $10, and it will work on first- and second-generation iPod touch models.
Many of the new features in iPhone 3.0 have been talked about before: Cut, Copy, and Paste, for example; landscape mode in all key applications, including Mail, Notes and Messages; spotlight support across the entire device; and ubiquitous searching. Peer-to-peer Bluetooth-based multiplayer gaming, push notification, in-app store support and other capabilities factored into demonstrations showing off iPhone 3.0's new features, as well. The complete list of features are listed in Apple's website.
