Apple iPhone OS 3.0 to be available today (Updated)

Apple

Apple is set to release the free upgrade to iPhone 3.0 (with over 100 new features, including cut/copy/paste across all applications, tethering over USB or Bluetooth, an updated Safari browser, push notifications, a landscape keyboard in key applications, and more) today. A link circulating on Twitter suggested that the release had been pushed back day (to the 18th) but a closer look at the link reveals that this is Apple’s Singapore site. It’s likely that the one day difference is due to timezones. If Apple releases the iPhone OS upgrade around noon EST today, it will already be the 18th in Singapore.

For the record, both Apple’s U.S. and Canada sites still show a June 17th release date. It’s now a matter of when today it will become available.

Don’t forget also that the Apple iPhone 3G S will be available this Friday, June 19th in the U.S., Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK.

Update: The iPhone 3.0 upgrade is now available for download. The iPod touch version is also available.
