I was fortunate enough to receive a license for my iPod touch 1G from SingleGrain’s iPhone 3.0 Beta Giveaway.
I have not yet had time to fully chronicle my explorations and experimentation with the OS; I will, however, offer my first impressions.
At first glance, the upgrade offers a lot of substance. The new features, most notably copy and paste and the Spotlight search functionality, change the way you use the entire device almost immediately.
3rd-party apps seem to work fine out of the box, which is good news for developers.
More to come on this in the future.
