Watch the iPhone OS 4 Keynote

So most of the rumors have been confirmed and as of April 8, Apple hosted a keynote for the newly created 4.0 firmware for iPhone and iPod touch. The new firmware will include 100+ user features and developers will recieve 1500 new APIs and a new feature that apple has made for developers specifically and that new feature is called iAd. iAd is what developers will use to make advertisements for their apps and will have interactivity and "emotions" apple says. There is also an improvement to Enterprises including more features and enhancements for business.

Below are pictures of new features of what Apple showed at the keynote.

how come apple always have to come out with an updated version of previous versions.. can't it wait for like a couple years? or even just one year? the iphone 3gs didn't come till recently didn't it? and now they came out with the ipad? jeez apple, i know you're trying to make money, but i think you already made enough for now. some people don't even have the old iphones, so how will they ever know that the new version is better? i feel that iphones will always be updated every 6 months or so, and that people will keep buying them. then what happens to all the old ones?

lol, Shannon, you're so naive about business/economics that it's kind of cute. There's no such thing as making too much money when it comes to corporate companies, especially not for one like Apple. They're going to capitalize on whatever they can, however they can, which is exactly what they're doing right now. They know they've got Apple users hooked on their products and will upgrade to newer versions of whatever they put out, even if they complain about it as you are. It's how the free market economy we have works, through the relationship between consumers and the ones giving us products to consume.
