Would this bring us push notifications? And dare we expect copy/paste?
According to MacRumors, Apple has provided select iPhone developers with iPhone OS 2.2 beta 1 and iPhone SDK (build 9M2611) for testing. Background Push Notifications are presumed to be implemented in the OS 2.2 beta 1 build.
A screenshot of this beta 1 update was leaked. Note the changes in Safari: A Google Search Bar is now placed right next to the address bar, and a Reload button is now part of the address bar itself. Copy/paste? No sign, or word, of that one yet.
