We already told you about the presentation of iPhone OS 3.0 tomorrow and of course there are lots and lots of rumors in the world wide web. Here is a short listing of the most important ones.
App Store
If Wired is right, there will be a premium section in the App Store. This would be really useful, because often good apps aren't recognized by most of the users, because there are so many fart and flashlight apps.
The german Blog iphoneticker.de expects some changes in the App Store to give the user a better overview.
Springboard
There will be a complete new springboard. This is what Macrumors is expecting. If their dreams come true, there will be a completely new way to sort your Apps, maybe using iTunes. They also think that Apple will include a push service and Copy and Paste.
GPS
According to AppleInsider Apple is going to prepare the iPhone for turn by turn navigation.
'Apple may leave that area to third party developers, or could enhance directions within Maps to support turn by turn features itself.'
Copy & Paste
Apart from Macrumors Kevin Rose, the founder of Digg.com, is talking about Copy and Paste. He describes it really similar to Clippy, which is a Copy an Paste solution for jailbreaked iPhones.

MMS
Most of the iPhone related websites think, that there is going to be a MMS service on the iPhone. It could work like the MMS app from Portugal.

There is no warranty that they will be included to iPhone OS 3.0, so the only thing we can do is to hope.
