Wow! Some exciting times around the corner for all of us potential new iPhone users. The magnetometer looks interesting. I can see it having GPS benefits by improving accuracy, and the iPhone will be aware of its state, such as being tilted and direction it is facing. It would be able to actually 'sense' how you hold your iPhone. I can only imagine the applications developers could use this for.

I guess for those of us without an iPhone we will have to settle for this until the new iPhone comes out this Summer.

im sure they can still call the camera app, camera. but they might change the name and icon of the photos app to reflect that it also stores videos. maybe media or something like that?
