Biggest announcements so far:

1) Multitasking (FINALLY)

- including the ability for background music, phone, VoIP and location services

2) Folders for App organization.

3) Enhanced email

- support for integrated inbox
- multiple Exchange accounts
- open attachements directly from email with apps from app store

4) iBooks

5) Enterprise features

- better data security
- mobile device management (this sounds like a BES-like feature of remotely disabling devices)
- wireless app distribution
- Exchange 2010 and SSL VPN support
- looks like Apple is finally starting to make very aggressive steps into the enterprise market, as I mentioned before, RIM needs to innovate or the pressure from iPhone and Droid will remove them from their core business

6) More and better gaming

7) iAd - mobile advertising

- great more ads, more a end user perspective this is not exciting at all

It's not gonna hit ipad till Fall. It's nice that it's come around. Changes pretty much everything to a good end.

They are quoting a release date of "summer" for iPhone OS 4.0. Note that this is just the operating system they're talking about, there has been no announcement for the iPhone model that will replace the 3Gs yet. If Apple's patter hold's true, that will likely happen in June.
