“This week,” reports Katerine Boehret (allthingsd.com), “I’ve been using an iPhone and iPod touch with” the recent Apple updates installed, “and I must say that both devices are much more useful and fun with these improvements.” In particular, Boehret likes Web clip because they “give these gadgets a new sense of instant gratification.” And the iPod touch “now has the same stellar Mail program that is found in the iPhone, a real plus.” The updates, she concludes, “are exciting, especially because they make home screens much more useful and individualistic.
