I'm sure push is going to be nice but landscape in everything is really what stands out most so far.

He's paid to become a member of the developer programme, which, for the majority of 'developers', should probably be renamed 'fanboy tax'. I'd love to know how big a bonus the guy who thought it up got - charging people for early copies of unfinished software that will later be given away for free... genius.

No, you do not need to be a developer to install 3.0 GM, its the final 3.0 release.

I did a Google search ("iphone ipsw 3.0 final", top hit), restored it [can you really restore to software you've never used before?], and it seems to be working fine :D

Just putting my content back on it now :)

I'm currently using the 3.0 gm it's quite nice, methinks a little slower but still ok, best feature - a2dp Bluetooth streaming iPod music from iPhone to new Bluetooth enabled car stereo

I think quite the opposite - deffo think this new version is faster. Loading and exiting out of apps is faster, taking pictures is faster...

Haven't tried the bluetooth yet properly though

Well I just got a text from O2 saying "the iPhone OS 3.0 software update arrives tomorrow evening." So 6pm sounds about right to me.

Ive had 3.0 since Friday, the Gold version the one most will get tomorrow.

Theres lots of cool things in it, spotlight is suprisingly fast and the little touches like new icons for phone and ipod apps are good.

FYI. I got a text from o2 before saying that MMS is now up and running, they even sent me a little MMS too. I've tested it and sent a pic of my car to my GF and it worked. So tomorrow everything will be fine!
