Apple event will highlight iPhone OS 3.0

Earlier today, Apple issued a press event announcement that promises to offer a "sneak peek" at iPhone OS 3.0. It'll go down at 10am Pacific on March 17th in Apple's Town Hall building in Cupertino.

As usual, the whole thing is rather cryptic. From the "blueprint" graphic and text, it sounds like the event will be limited to an overview (but not a release) of iPhone OS 3.0. Perhaps we'll learn a bit about any changes to the SDK as well.

What would you like to see? Copy and paste, for sure. Push notifications for 3rd party apps next. Anything else?

Finally, we don't know who will be doing the talking. Typically, we just assumed it would be Steve.

Likewise, them sending an MMS to me is a pain in the ass because AT&T has the most ridiculous system of clicking on a link, entering random characters, and waiting for their extremely slow website to load. Not iPhone friendly in the least.

Push and background processing will be allowed for certain "premium" apps. App store will be updated for two tiers of apps. MMS will be in. A rudimentary copy & paste will be implemented, but won't work with all apps due to security concerns. Video will not be in. Springboard wallpaper will be implemented. A new mail app will appear, with landscape keyboard.

One feature I miss on the iphone that has been in every phone i've ever owned, is a notification that my textmessage was delivered to the recipient. I just can't get it though my head that such a simple thing has been left out.

Please, please, please? Everybody else is doing it. So why can't you?
