New smart cover puts it to sleep when you close and awakens when you open it.

No doubt it seems they will take orders today as can't get in the Apple Store as they say it is "being updated".

My wife is getting one free from her work. Unfortunately it's going to be 16GB, so we'll sell it to get a larger capacity one.

I like this:

Lets you share your iPhone's 3G connection over Wi-Fi to other devices.

At a low, low fee of $20 per month and you have to abandon unlimited data. I'll just keep doing that with my jailbroken phone.

Re: iPad 2 to be announced on 3/2
 
iMovie also
Hope it is better than the one for the iPhone as that one sucks.

Looks like it mimics the one for the Mac.

Freaking store still updating.

Still looks pretty cool overall. We were planning on buying before my wife's company surprised us, and I think we still would have bought.
