iPhone mail layout demoed in original iPhone introduction

[wwooden]

I was watching the first iPhone introduction keynote that Steve did and he showed a mail layout on the phone where it would list 2-3 of the messages, and then show the body of the message selected below. I really like that idea of a layout and I wish we had the option to do it now. I'm not sure why they removed the feature, or at least the option. I've attached a screen capture of the video.

I'm hoping they bring the option back. I don't have the 3.0 Beta, is this possible in it?

I remember him talking about split view in the original iPhone introduction, and I thought I remembered something about it finally getting here in 3.0. I could be wrong though...

What a great idea. Implement it now!

I actually agree with Apple's decision to remove the feature - it's too pokey and cramped in the ize of the screen to have split view!

I didn't see anything of it in the 3.0 beta.

thats because Jobs was using 4.0 beta in that keynote he's probably up to OS 6.0 just waiting and waiting every year to release them haha

Makes me claustrophobic just looking at it.
