iOS4 update to 4.2

With the newly released iOS4 update, the iPhone 4, 3G, and 3GS all receive a number of new features. These features include, AirPlay, AirPrint, and messaging with text tones.

AirPlay:

AirPlay allows users to wirelessly stream their pictures, videos, and other digital media from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to Apple TV. This enables users to watch their movies on the televisions instead of on the smaller screens of the other devices.

AirPrint:

AirPrint allows users to print almost anything from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. There aren't many printers currently on the market that support AirPrint, but in December a large firmware update for some existing printers will enable them to make full use of AirPrint.

Messaging with text tones is something that most phones have had for a long time, but Apple is just getting around to adding it. It allows users to select specific tones for texting, depending upon who sent the text.
