(View all)VPN will be a huge deal for a lot of people. This is great news.
Ask a stupid question but what benefits would this offer? I get a work phone from time to time but don't do anything particularly exciting apart from make calls.
Thanks.
I like the iTunes 7.3 as well. :)

I'm a wireless network newb, but won't that slow down my home N network when I connect with it?
Just curious.
I think it is cool for apple & ATT to be releasing these sorta kind of updates during the week. I have a feeling something special will happen friday.
I know. It has been like a mini version of the song "12 days of Christmas"....
Marketing wise, this has been genius. IMO.
You would think it would have wireless N capabilities since Apple is pioneering this stuff.

Good question, would the n standard wi-fi cost that much more?
