iPhone 3.0 Software Event

Hey guys, this is mackheads101 and um I'm trying to make this video as quickly as I can just so that way I can get it up on YouTube because I haven't seen anything up on YouTube lately about this. It is about the iPhone 3.0.

So Apple just finished a little while ago with their 3.0 software um release when they're talking about it. So now I'm going to be doing a quick cap over about what what's been going on. The first um thing that really is new is in-app purchasing.

So um this is a purchase for an application that you already have. Now why would you want to purchase something after you already bought it? So let's say you have like a game like I don't know, okay here, first thing that can come to my head is Penguin Club. My brother used to play that when he was little and um basically every single time you wanted to do something it would say please purchase um a car, please purchase a little puppet or whatever.

So now, once you have a game or a book, you can purchase a subscription or an ebook, additional levels for games, add-ons to games, whatever. The next is peer-to-peer connectivity and that's to um you can send things to other um Bluetooth devices and stuff like that.

So yeah, and then there's third-party accessory apps which means if you have an app for like a really cool one that I saw. I didn't see the video; the video is not up yet, but I saw the actual uh pictures. There was a live picture thing where there's a picture taken about every 30 seconds with um captions about what's going on.

So I looked at that and one of the course examples I saw was a doctor application that can like for doctors. There’s a little thing that connects at the bottom through this port, I think it's called the three pin adapter, and then it goes onto your arm. It's like a pump and then it brings the stuff to there. So it's um a hard piece of hardware that connects your iPhone and um does that.

Next is turn by turn um Apple is going to let people use the GPS API. They added like over a thousand APIs I think, and so one of them is turn by turn directions. Because um for an iPhone you know that the GPS really really lacks and the GPS chip is just like any other GPS chip. So GPS chip is fine, but um it's the actual um applications that need to be fixed.

So now with the turn by turn API, anyone can make like that. Next is cut, copy and paste. Everyone really really wanted copy and paste and I had, before it came out, I had about five different applications that let me cut, copy and paste. One was a bookmark; I had two applications that do it, one add-on to my system preferences and um yeah, and then an add-on to my keyboard.

So I had five different things that let me do cut, copy and paste. Now, I removed all of them because I know that um I'm gonna get them. Um, okay, the next is landscape keyboard. As you probably know, ninety percent of the time when you type in the keyboard it's like this. A lot of people, they say the screen can go like that, why not put the keyboard like that? Like you can do it in the internet application.

Hold on, say they want their keyboard like that but we can't do that emailing, texting, aiming. So now they added functionality for that.

Okay, voice memos. So now you can record interviews, like kind of like notes application where you can record and you can name it whatever you want. That's going to be pretty cool.

And the next is spotlight search. I'm not quite sure how that works because if you double tap the home button, it brings you to your emergency contacts. Well, that's what I have mine set up to, but I think maybe if you triple tap the home button or something like that, there’s a search button that comes up at the top and it can search between every single application.

Oh sorry, that's a thing that I have to come up for settings for my jailbreak. So but it's going to be like a search thing that comes up right up there and you can just type in the keyboard and you can search everything. It's like spotlight; you can search e...
