Just read a report that the next update is coming (appleinsider). I wonder how much of the new features thing is true,a nd when is soon?

The juicy quote with all the features mentioned speculation about upcoming updates....so it probably won't have all of them. It's also an analyst speculating, not an Apple employee.

Abramsky speculated that upcoming iPhone software updates would include new widgets, peer-to-peer applications (chat, picture messaging, social networking), location-based services, MMS support, home networking, and possibly some integration with Mac OS X Leopard.

from that article, assuming its accurate, it sounds like there is no iPhone nano:

"After speaking with Joswiak, the analyst also made changes to his predictions for future iPhone models. Although he spoke of "higher resolution" iPhones earlier this month, Abramsky now says he expects Apple to differentiate its iPhone lineup not by features, but by price and memory capacity. The move, he explained, would be similar to how the company grew its iPod lineup, simplifying market positioning."

I don't think there ever was one. At least not in the near future (and by near I mean within a year of the iPhone release date)

I cant wait for this first update, i cant believe it took this long, especially with all the problems everyones faced with. I hope there will still be hacking after the first update. And i hope that the first update does not wipe all the mods that i did to my phone off.

i'm hoping hacking wont be necessary. i hope apple adds custom ringtones, ichat, and whatever else people want. its silly apple doesnt think users should be allowed to put whatever ringtone they want on their phone.
