    1. Screenshot- Hold Home button & press top/sleep button. Screen will flash & picture saves to Camera Roll.

    2. Save pictures in email & on the web - hold your finger on the picture & it will ask you if you want to save it. Also saves to your Camera Roll.

    3. When typing a web address, hold the ".com" key down & you will also get .net, .edu, .org to choose from.

    4. In Settings, Under Mail, Contact, Calendars, you can now import SIM contacts...

    5. Some AppStore programs hide their settings in the iPhone Settings menu. It took me awhile to figure out how to change AIM's Username/Password, until I found the AIM Settings hiding there... So far I've also seen Shazam's & Save Benji's settings there as well...

    No problem. Those were just a few things I found by playing around & reading the gadget blogs. Also, I'm sure most people have found this out by now, but in case you've missed it somehow - the calculator now changes to a scientific calculator if you rotate it...

    Oh, and if you have 2 iPhones (you and your wife or girlfriend or whatever) - register them both using the same iTunes account & you can use the same Apps on both iPhones. Example - I paid for Monkeyball & downloaded it on my iPhone & then my wife DL'd it & installed it on hers for free. I think you can put them on up to 5 devices under the same account.

    Yes, I love the new password "feature". It freaked me out at first, but it has definitely helped...

    That's awesome. I wanted to buy monkeyball but not twice. What happens when I plug my wife's into her account in the iMac, will it still sync her music and videos?

    I thought that you can dig into (WindowsXP) the file system and just copy the application over?

    C:\Documents and Settings\Prom1\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Mobile Applications

    And just simply copy from user "Prom1" to user "mmmartin" ??

    Thanks for the camera screenshot, and import sim card contact tip. For some reason my iphone isn't reading my sim card contacts yet it still gets service.
    Girls are like phones. They like to be held, and talked too but if you press the wrong button you'll get disconnected!!!
