iPhone News Of The Day

posted in gadgets, by Codrut Nistor

Yearning for some iPhone news? Don't worry, we got plenty! Fortunately, it's not only about those iPhone 3G problems a lot of people seem to be facing these days. In fact, we won't talk about problems now at all, since there's something even better to check out - new and interesting features that should arrive for iPhone 3G users, once the version 2.2 of the software is officially released!

Sooo... without any additional comments, here you have the iPhone news of the day - according to a bunch of new photos, the upcoming software version of the iPhone will bring Street Views to the Maps application, but this is only a large part of the entire pie, since there's much more expected from iPhone 2.2. What else?

Well, apart from Street Views, you will also be able to get bus, train and walking directions right from your phone.
That should be the end of "Excuse me, could you tell me where is..." - at least for iPhone users, of course. If this is a good thing or a bad thing, that depends on who you're asking this. After all, the more smart our gadgets become, the less frequently appears the need to ask for help from other people.

From here to becoming a world full of people walking on the street without saying a word to each other may not be such a short path, but I think that's where we're headed. Anyway, don't worry - there's going to be a "location sharing" feature, too, so you can easily bring all your contacts to your location, if they have the iPhone to guide them, of course!

These being said, I conclude the iPhone news of the day here, but be sure we'll get back to the Street View and the other goodies as soon as version 2.2 of the software will be officially available.
