This has already been mentioned but unfortunately it isn't there if you use Exchange. Can someone confirm whether it is there for MobileMe?
Stock Application
The new Stock Application now displays the bottom of the stock list instead of the top. I prefer the old way of display from the top. The indexs are on the top which is what I prefer to see first. Now I have to scroll up each time I go into the Applicaiton.

You have to hold down the sleep/wake button until the red slider comes up. Then you press your home button and it takes you to your home screen. It is the new way to force quit apps.
The reason would be that this now runs the voice control thingy on the 3G s, and I guess they wanted to be consistent.
Question you guys, can you delete one call from your recent call list or do you have to still clear the whole list.
Does the mistress keep calling you?
No, I'm a girl
, I know shocking a girl geek . I use phone for work and personal it would help a little.
This means you have call forwarding on
Set iPhone to forward your calls:
Choose Phone > Call Forwarding and turn Call Forwarding on.
Tap Forwarding To and enter the phone number you want calls forwarded to.

If this is a new 3.0 feature it's a pretty crummy one. Ever since updating my phone to 3.0 I've noticed that after dock/sync with my Mac and then start up the iPod functions that it says "updating library" in the window, and it will take up to 30 seconds (I have 14GB of music on my 3G).
Is anyone else experiencing this? It's really annoying. In the past I had observed that after docking I would experience a brief period on the phone when launching iPod in which it was slightly unresponsive (black screen, etc) but nothing like this "updating library" delay that I'm seeing now.
Other 3.0 gems I've observed;
1. When I dock the iPhone now it starts playing music out of the speaker on the iPod for a second before the audio plays from the dock device.
2. Quite a bit of lag when changing tracks, and lag in the album art updating.
I'm suspicious that 3.0 requires a lot more overhead than 2.0 and as a result these things are happening. I will have my 3GS in a week so hopefully it will perform better.

Hey, us girls can have fun juggling guys around too!
You brought up a good point though. I know that we will be able to delete individual text messages without deleting the whole conversation, but I'm not sure if we can delete a single call. If anyone reading this has 3.0, please let us know. thnx.
tell me about it. i hate it. there is a way to hide it but it just comes back when you install something from the app store or when you reset the device. but to answer the other question, no the stock app is still here.....unfortunately
Can someone PLEASE confirm with me if the CALL TIME (eg. how long you were on that phone call last tuesday) is in 3.0?
That has to be by far the most irritating lack of feature i've seen (yes, more than MMS)
