and expect a huge let down cause street view is not in this update
I wonder why. It's not like the iPod touch is that much different from the iPhone in terms of software.
If there even is a difference. I don't see why they couldn't have given us something like that as well as the iPhone users.

Street view is of debatable use for Touch users as it could only be used when you have wi-fi access which is more often than not, non existant as there is no mobile data service (a different complaint
) so it is only of use when going no where.Yeah it could be nice, but it doesn't rate that high on the wants list.
The new things I notice
The URL bar is now side by side to the google bar.
When u scroll down the URL bar goes away
When u save a pic by pressing wake and home at the same time it now makes a camera sound .
Now there is pictures next to that catgory in the app store . Also they added a release date in the app store.
That's the only thing I notice differnt. I don't see slot of new features. I don't even see the google street view.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think those are new. I remember those in 2.1.
As for the updated features, read the MR homepage. I think there are links to threads about how to find/use them.
I don't rember the bar going away in 2.1 . For the camera sound i dont think i ever tried it on my 2g.
yep. You are 100% wrong. I just checked on a phone running 2.1 and that's all there.
I mean absolutely no offense with this, but you're wrong.
TuffLuffJimmy, you beat me to it!
Drop a pin on a location and touch the pin. Then click the icon on the left side of the bar that pops up.

I meant a little offense with mine, so I guess your post was a little different
Also when your in the home screen, hit the home button and from what ever page your on in the home screen, it will go back to page one. Big deal for me was the podcast download, that alone made me very happy
The biggest thing for me is it is SO much faster. Everything is snappier, and no crashes. And no more annoying Wifi bugs either.
