Thanks, Justin!

Why can't he just say 2-point-o, instead of 2-dot-zero? It's really bugging me.

What I MEANT to say was: Even though it is relatively insignificant, I am looking forward to the CAPS LOCK feature.
Caps lock has been in since 1.1.3 I believe. Maybe even 1.1.1
Whenever they added the two spaces = period shortcut.
Thanks! I had no idea - caps lock never worked for me, but I just dug through the settings and noticed that feature was not switched on for me.

Unless I am wrong, how did that get there?
I can't seem to find a decent answer to this question...
I current pull email into Microsoft Entourage on my mac book pro from about 7 different email accounts. This is nice because it keeps those accounts clear (so i don't need to check them individually) and allows me to sort all of my mail into folders by type/job/etc. I really want to get the new iphone...but will this work with my emails? I currently have my system set to scan my addresses every three minutes. Will iphone be able to access my email even if entourage is frequently clearing out my account?
Please help!
Why does everyone at Apple dress the same? I find that scary.

Is it just me or did they "forget" to mention that it now may support ZIP files?
Was watching the Tour and when they were showing iWork document support they had em in ZIP files and the iPhone still knew what they were.

iWork uses .zip files to compact the files you create with them. This is used to package stuff like images, etc. along with the file rather than just embed it. If you create a document in pages and save it, it will be saved as Document.pages.zip rather than just .pages. Would be nice if the attachment viewer didn't show this ".zip" extension for the purpose of ease of use...
It looks like it will only support iWork-specific ZIPs. Would be interesting if it did support others though...
o okay...never really noticed that in iWork.
