Kevin Rose leaked some information about iPhone OS 3.0 during the live Diggnation show at SXSW in Austin last night.
According to Gizmodo, Rose revealed the following information: - Cut and paste in 3.0 - Users magnify or double tap a word to bring up cut and paste - Pinch "boundaries" to select word(s); Rose called them "copy boundaries" - Then you get option to cut, paste or copy
Also, the 3.0 update will have enough new features and additions to bring it up to the Palm Pre levels. Whatever Palm Pre has shown us so far, apparently, the iPhone will have too when 3.0 becomes official. That point remains a bit hazy right now
Rose also said that MMS and video recording would not be present in this release nor will background processes be allowed.

Plus it's all down to bandwith at@t can't handle 3g speed of the iphones and mms pictures using their network . that's why a few countries in europe and asia have mms on ther iphones and we don't we should start a angry petetion for mms on our iphones or sue at@t for lack of serves since all their other phones they carry have mms.
