Early Hands On Videos from iPhone 4, Camera Flash, Multicore Support
With iPhone 4 seeded to developers, videos and screenshots of the new operating system are already appearing. Here's one video (in Polish) walking through multitasking and folders (via MyApple.pl):
Some early screenshots from Gamecenter, 5x Digital Zoom in Camera App and More posted to 9to5Mac.
We've discovered references to Camera Flash in the iPhone SDK (again), suggesting that Apple is working on a physical camera flash for future versions of the iPhone. Apple has also integrated Grand Central Dispatch into the iPhone OS -- a technology introduced with Snow Leopard to ease the use of multi-core processors. The current iPhone currently only has single core processors, though there have been long-standing rumors that Apple might use the multi-core Cortex A9 in the future.

Looks promising. Seems you can stop apps from running in the background too.

I like the folders implementation. I think I'm more excited about that than anything else.

Don't you think it's pathetic it took all the way to 2010 to offer a flash for a camera, when even the most basic of "smart phones" have been doing it for over a decade now?

No. Pathetic is posting on a message board about the lack of a flashlight on your phone

Hang on... so they thought iPhone, rather than the iPad should be the first to receive multi-core?!
