iPhone v1.1.1 Feature Breakdown (8 and counting)

Engadget got their hands on v1.1.1 iPhones at Apple's London event this morning. I thought I would breakdown the 8 new features I have gathered from examining there photos.ALRIGHT!!! new Calculator icon!!!! I was waiting for when they would change the lame icon on the iPhone. Actually, there are 7 other items that are much more important. Make sure you check the link for pictures of each feature.

• Now Playing controls throughout. I've complained about this before and thankfully, it's on the way.


• Double clicking home screen goes to "Favorites" or "iPod"


• iTunes Wifi Store. No surprise there. It's already running on the Touch.


• Additional iPod features: Closed captioning and support for video out.


• New Calculator icon on the home screen. Hmmm, okay.


• Multiple, international keyboards.


• Network setup with VPN support and disabling EDGE while roaming. Goodbye $3,000 international roaming bills.


• Mysterious "Carrier" menu. My personal hope would be support for other carrier's SIMs internationally within the iPhone family. For example, I travel to England and can insert an O2 SIM.
