The latest version of Apple’s iPhone software (246MB) has been released and is available via iTunes (also recently updated). It has a short list of fixes, including fixes for the recent security issues but little I’ve actually made use of.

First impressions are that it has stopped the connection-dropping I was sometimes experiencing. Still no copy and paste, MMS or landscape SMS’ing though.

  • Google Street View in Google Maps
  • Public transit and walking directions in Google Maps
  • Display the address of a place when you drop a pin
  • Share your location via email
  • A fix for a scheduled fetching of email bug
  • Improved stability and performance of Safari
  • Podcasts can be downloaded right to the iPhone over WiFi or 3G
  • A decrease in call failures and dropped calls
  • Improved sound quality of visual voicemail messages
  • The ability to return to the main home iPhone screen with the click of the home button
  • The ability to turn on and off the keyboard auto-correction feature
