and boy is it great. Today’s software update for the iPhone brought with it a couple of really nice new features and the Wifi pickup seems to be twice as strong as before, I had a list of over twenty wireless networks at one point today. But the really great feature is the ability to access iTunes from the iPhone and make quick purchases, to illustrate how easy it is, search for “Car Crash” by Matt Nathanson on your iPhone or iPod touch, the single will preview really quickly, and if you tap buy, after tapping once more to confirm, your iPhone will download the song straight to your iPhone.Once you reconnect with your iTunes library later in the day, iTunes will transfer your newly acquired song to your library, it’s easy and fun and may be enough to keep iTunes market dominance growing despite Amazon’s spectacular entry to the digital music business.
