iPhone3.0 OS - on it's way

Great article on the upcoming release of the iPhone 3.0 OS.  

While design patterns have emerged from within the iPhone Apple Developer community, it would be a bit bold to say that anything depends on these patterns for very long in this world.  Any attempt to afix judgement of a new release of the iPhone OS to these patterns may be a bit pre-mature.

Or perhaps it's a matter of perspective? (See:&nbsp;<a href="http://tinyurl.com/daknpn">http://tinyurl.com/daknpn</a>&nbsp;re: NeXTstep)


Which ever angle you take, the addition of copy / paste into the mix will bring a new "inter-application" level of thinking into the design patterning of the iPhone software architecture. Perhaps it'll be something faceless that will be backwards compatible with all existing apps, (denoting it's really more of an OS layer addition) but the ramifications if it not being at that level is one that would surely add a new dimention to future design patterns
