Anyone downloaded it yet for their iPhone or iPod Touch?

I've had a bit of a play around; the copy & paste is very nice, and the Spotlight search works really well.

    The picture messaging wouldn't work for me when I first downloading it but it does now. I got it around 7pm.

    I think it's been way over-hyped but some of the new features are pretty cool. I'm sure I haven't found them all but here's the ones I like so far...

    Copy and paste
    Being able to delete individual messages
    Being able to forward messages
    MMS
    Landscape keyboard
    Shake the shuffle songs in the iPod - this one is probably my fave actually.

    I`ve forward messages I think, but no one has replied so I`m not sure. Still no luck with the picture message but I read that o2 need to send you text to say its been set up. It`s taking forever to sync though so might give up and try tomorrow.

    I have a touch and would be interested to know if people think it is worth the £5.99? I've looked on the site and read some of the reviews and guides people have put up about the update and I'm not sure how much it is going to add.

    Have you gone into settings and turned on the MMS? It's in settings - messaging. I can't remember if I turned this on before trying to send that message again, I suspect I did!

    my iPhone was upgraded and working on 3.0 by about 6.40pm, and I've still not got an MMS from O2

    What you can do, is text MMS to 1010 for free and eventually, eventually, you should get an MMS telling you it's been set up..

    I like the find my iPhone feature within MobileMe now.. that's legendary..
