This is a good update with some nice features. I can't really comment on the people who say "the iPhone should include the following x features": I knew what I was buying when I bought the iPhone, it performs as promised, and now it performs better than promised. The pseudo GPS is nice (though of limited usefulness, unless you're hopelessly lost in a town with good mobile phone coverage but no street signs), whereas the add-web-apps to the home is a very nice feature.
There's just one issue I would like others to be aware of. On O2 (UK provider), when I completed the upload, all my phone and Edge connectivity was gone. The solution was to reset the network settings — which unfortunately loses all the WiFi settings, but that's ok — and, within a few scary moments (emergency calls only, info that 'iPhone was activated'), everything was working again, with (I think) actually a stronger signal.
Hopefully this saves at least one other person from scared calls to O2.
Apple iPhone
Firmware for the phone (available via iTunes).

Good update, but on O2 need to reset network
