I hope it's seeded on May 12th or 19th as usual. Anyway, I'm still waiting for customizable springboard, "smarter" Spotlight search, Mail rules and filters, call blocker and scrolling song titles (for God's sake!).

What are your expectations?
 
They just came out with Beta 5. Why not work on that for a bit before throwing your absurd expectations into the fray?

Mms, copy and paste and landscape. That'll do for me!!!!!!

NO apple will not allow that PERIOD.. if you wanna do that its called jailbreak you can do it right now and theme your phone.. and apple NEVER said they would allow themeing so why are you hoping its in beta 5? it doesnt make sense . if they did there would have to be somewhere were you can get themes .. there isnt .. USE YOUR HEAD

This has been a BIGGIE for me for a WHILE now...I mean, HOW could Apple have POSSIBLY overlooked this? iPod's have scrolling song titles and have had them for a while now, yet the iPhone doesn't! I swear dude, it boggles my mind.
 
I don't think we will see any new features until the official release of 3.0, if there are any more to be found at all.

Have you been beta testing at all for the past five releases?

They've covered MMS and Copy/Paste in the first beta. Pay attention and you won't look like a fool.

ISn't word on the street that MMS in some cases is taken out/not initially implemented in beta 5? If so, then it's fair enough to ask reinstatement in beta 6.
 
I'm starting to doubt that we will see anymore changes aside from video and location capabilities with 3.0.

I'm hoping it'll be done.
 
I'd like them to finish the AVRCP implementation so we can track skip instead of just play/pause from our BT headphones.
 
There will be a Beta 6 released this upcoming Tuesday (May 12).

It's a total of EIGHT betas for OS 3.0 - There will be a new iPhone this July. And you will be in for a real surprise come this June's WWDC.

Wow dude chill, it's a perfectly good request, one that many of us want. Let me see a place where you could get themes...... hmmm, I seem to remember some talk about something called an Appstore. Surely themes would be released if the SDK supported such a thing.
 
when?

this tuesday?

C'mon, don't pull this crap. Tell us what you know, at least a tiny hint.
 
I don't want or need new features. I just want them to refine the hell out of what's already there. This is a beta period, not 12 weeks of Christmas. Stop it with the unrealistic wishlists. You'll only leave yourself dissapointed and somehow you'll probably end up blaming Apple.*

EDIT: I pasted that from Notes and the * appeared from nowhere. Weird.
