An iPhone 2.0 update appears to be on the way, as AppleInsider has caught a screenshot of an iPhone running software version 2.0.1. What will this update entail? No one can say for sure since at this point the updated phones can be traced only to the San Francisco Bay Area aka Apple headquarters and Atlanta, where AT&T is located. With testing only internal at this point, all we can do is speculate. 

What we do know, however, is that the update comes in two distinct builds, 5B101 for the first gen iPhone and 5B103 for the 3G iPhones. 

Well, it looks like ads will soon be integrated into iPhone games. In particular, a company called Greystripe, which targets makers of mobile games, has offered its services directly to iPhone developers.

iPhone Game Advertising

Plus, Jirbo, an iPhone game developer, is now reaching out to advertisers on their website, asking, “Interested in targeting the world’s largest online iPhone and iPod Touch gaming community?” then prompts advertisers to e-mail them should they be interested in having their ads run “on the millions of handsets that view Jirbo content each month.” 

Normally when rumors about a company are being leaked or speculated about, they go to great lengths to cover them up or squelch them fast. But not Apple. In fact, during the Q3 financial results conference call yesterday–besides noting they had sold more Macs than they ever had before–Apple confirmed that big new things are coming in Q4.

CEO, Steve Jobs, noted Apple was “busy finishing several more wonderful new products to launch in the coming months,” and the CFO, Peter Oppenheimer commented that revenue would only be going up, saying “we expect revenue of about $7.8 billion [in Q4] and earnings per diluted share of about $1.00.”

With the new iPhone 2.0 update, new features are tucked away all over the place. But one that I really enjoy is the screenshot capability. Now you can take a picture of what’s on your iPhone’s screen at any given moment, just as you would on your computer. Pretty neat, huh?

And it’s super easy. Whenever you’re on a screen you want to capture, just press the square button at the bottom of your phone and the power button at the same time. Now, I know this sounds like a soft reboot, but in this case, you don’t press and hold the buttons. Just a quick click will suffice. You’ll know you’ve succeeded if the screen flashes white.
