Internet tethering will allow customers to share their internet connection with your laptop, via Bluetooth or USB.
There will be a landscape virtual keyboard in some applications, and the ability to cut and paste text from application to application, and images from the web.
Voice-memos will enable users to record meetings or memos via the built-in microphone or the mic on the headset. Users will also be able to take a picture or a video while inside messages.
iPhone owners will be able to download the software from iTunes for free. iPod Touch users can get it for $9.95. The new iPhone 3GS will be out this Friday.
