iPhone 2.0 Beta Hacked

iPhonev2
Apparently the iPhone 2.0 software currently in beta and set to release in June 08 has been hacked out of the iPhone SDK Kit. The folks over at Engadget got a glimpse at the new features and from what it seems , its not going to sweep you off your feet.
Here is what they found:

  • Microsoft Exchange - Using AT&T network changes are checked almost instantly but using Wi-Fi it checks for changes every now and then.
  • Still no contacts search option
  • Mysterious new button in the calendar
  • App Store Button
  • Added Cisco VPN client but unsure whether it supports SecurID or other hardware token authenticators
  • Parental controls
  • Capability to set preferred WiFi networks
  • New horizontal scientific mode calculator now does commas and has function support
  • Capability to multi-select mail (like Windows Mobile OS)
Here is a good youTube video I was able to find (turn the volume down the background music sucks).
