IPhone 3.0

I'm typing this on my iPhone 3G with 3.0 on it. It's working pretty good so far. Ok I love it. This is way late, so I'm just pressing send - New one shipped today, comes tomorrow!

Horizontal keyboard in email is great, along with email search. Features long overdue. The spotlight all phone search is better than I thought too. It searched contacts and all my email as well app names etc. Everything worked as expected except for a few applications.
I did upgrade early so hopefully moat of these things will be fixed by Thursdays release.
The first killer was etrade pro didn't work but they put out an update and that's working now.
Skype called out an os error and didn't seem to work.
Camera zoom just crashed when opened. That was a bummer too.

Text free is having crash trouble but has worked a little. (Updated: They released a new version and its working great with push service, no more receiving the emails.)

Several games just don't work anymore. Still waiting for updates on those.
