Update to iPhone 3.0

Plug in your iPhone and smash the Update button in iTunes to grab yourself the latest and greatest update to iPhone 3.0, complete with copy-and-paste, MMS, search, push notifications, and more.

AT&T users in the US won’t actually get everything iPhone 3.0 has to offer off the bat, like MMS and tethering. Why? Frankly, it’s apparently because AT&T dropped the ball on MMS and just hasn’t settled on a price tag for tethering (though Gizmodo reports that it could be as much as $70/month for unlimited data tethering).

That doesn’t mean there still isn’t plenty more to look forward to, so go grab your update (it looks like the 230MB download’s going to take about 30 minutes for me), then let’s hear how you like the new features in the comments.
