Stop hitting F5, iPhone OS 3.0 release still hours away?

Apple may release the iPhone OS v3 at 6pm today UK time, the update should also be available as a chargable item for the iPod Touch.

v3 (on the iPhone) should allow MMS, cut and paste, tethering and the background push notification service as well as many new API calls.

Time will tell if Apple have got it right and if sales will match previous iPhone hype and store rushes.
