New IPhone 2.2: The iPhone OS 2.2 Rumor Round Up
OK, so we all knew that the iPhone 2.2 update was bringing Google Maps Street View and walking directions (about time, too). But Gizmodo says it will also include over-the-air podcast downloads. First I’ve heard of this, but a welcome feature that people like me and Dave Winer have been clamoring for from the beginning.
And it suddenly makes a lot more sense why Apple rejected the “Podcaster” app (which downloads over the air, too) for “duplicating iTunes functionality”. At the time, we scratched our heads, because the iPhone had no such capability.
Now the big question is when will it be rolled out to the rest of us? I’m seriously going nuts, like a kid at Christmas, hoping that each day is the day it gets pushed out.
