Yeah your right, but you get that with any major OS change. Even though I haven't updated yet, I've noticed quite a few of my applications have quickly released updates. So even if there are problems, the developers are getting on to them nice and quickly.

Unfortunately another Apple imposed limitation.

I have a Bluetooth audio module on my home stereo, play my phones iPod thru that, was awesome but now they have fixed AVRCP(Audio Video Remote Control Protocol) I can now control the stereo's volume with the iPhone.
Cheers Apple

Yea, this new fix rocks . I have one of those stereo Bluetooth tie clip hand free receivers ( $15 from HK on Ebay ) feeding my Ipod Touch into my big stereo HI FI . The lack of volume control really bugged me before. Its awesome to flick through 300 CD's and make playlists all from the palm of my hand .

For that matter the inclusion of ability to make playlists on the ipod and have them synced to your computer is the greatest feature of OS4 for me, and ability to make folders on the home screen comes in second

Hah! I bought one of those too.
I thought my existing Bluetooth audio(A2DP) module was faulty 'coz I had read that the 3GS was AVRCP capable, but the volume control never worked.

It hasn't arrived yet, wondering what I can do with it now.....
The module I'm currently using with the HiFi was pilfered from a large bookshelf speaker system that sounded pretty good(photo) so might put it back in that
