Apple released its long awaited iOS4 update yesterday. From my limited time playing with the update I can safely say that it is simply fantastic. Multitasking and the ability to organise apps in folders are two features that make this update indispensable and worth the trouble of going through the update procedure. For me, the update procedure went without any glitches and I was up and running on the new update in under 2 hours, including the download.
