iPhone iOS 4 Releasing today around 1pm EST! -UPDATE- It's OUT!

The new iPhone "iOS" 4 releases today, just a few days before the release of the new iPhone 4.  This new OS for the iPhone has over 100 new features and is a must get.  All the new features will be available on the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 3GS (except for new hardware features on iPhone 4), but features like multi-tasking/wallpaper won't be available on the 3G and the iTouch, due to older hardware.  One of the biggest new features is the new app folders.  You can now have up to 2100+ apps due to the fact that you can make folders on your screen and add up to 12 apps in each folder.  This clears up a lot of clutter on your screen and makes for fast navigating of your apps.  Another main feature is the multi-tasking.  You will be able to run several third party apps at the same time.  Don't worry, you can click the home button twice and it brings up a little screen at the bottom, that shows each app running and you can also switch between apps when this screen pops up.  There are many more features, but those are the two biggest that jumped out at me.


***You need iTunes 9.2 to be able to update to iOS 4.

Here is a link to apple's site and some info on the new features.
