Today we got the new iPhone 3.0 firmware. The new features are really helpful, the phone's usability being improved substantially. My favourites are: the landscape keyboard, notes sync, and the spotlight search.

Now the update is here, it makes me wonder what will the next generation of the software look like? It seems that with every update the iPhone OS more and more resembles desktop operating systems. Well, time will tell.

In related news, we are launching the iPhone 3G the 'S' this Friday and I will be working on Regent Street. Wonder how crazy is it going to be? Should be fun anyway.

In UNrelated news

Meanwhile, in unrelated news I'm preparing (or at least I wish I was) for the GMAT test. For those who don't know, it is a test to get onto an MBA programme. It is difficult, mainly because the questions are VERY tricky.

Why I am doing this? Yes, you guessed it, I am applying for an MBA! I chose Rotterdam School of Management, one of the most reputable business schools on the Continent and hope they will reciprocate and choose me. The GMAT is the final step in getting my application ready and so I am really looking forward to having it done. The requirement is a minimum of 600 out of 800 points, which seems reasonable, especially when looking at the requirements of some American schools - usually in high 700s! Hold your horses though, I have seen quite a bunch of really intelligent people getting it wrong for the first time. Anyway, the test is going to take place on Tuesday and then all will be clear; now, I'm going to sleep.
