The iPhone refund page seems to indicate something new is coming in a future firmware. If you scroll down to the end of this page https://supportform.apple.com/200709/main?id=qp
you'll notice that the example shown shows firmware version 1.1.1 and if you look closer you notice new Home button options as well as an International option. Could this be the double click of the Home button to bring up music controls on the fly just like the iPod Touch?
good eye
not sure whats that means for the unlocked phones though
Let's hope that they start dissecting these firmwares just like the PSP and we get some nice hacked up custom firmwares with all the freedom the PSP has evolved to have. Only time will tell what those of us with unlocked phones will be able to do regarding updates.Quote:

Sorry to sound like an ass, but what would be the benefit of this? iPhone OS is software-based, and many of us have already customized it to our heart's content. I can't think of anything in addition to the unlock that I'd do to the firmware.Quote:

They could take the parts that still allow phones to run unlocked with the added features of the new firmwares. This would be a great advantage of those of us with unlocked phones.Quote:

The international option further solidifies the release of the iPhone in europe
One interesting thing I noticed is that the iTunes music store is absent on the home screen shot. Hopefully a fluke, but I would be very pissed if they decided not to port it to iphone (why on earth they would do this, IDK)
