What's new in Firmware 3.0 Beta4: 12 changes
Here is a list of changes from iSapzio (sorry, screenshots are in Italian):
1. You can now enter to Settings-Store to see the balance and billing information:
2. Another change concerns volume control in the iPod app (or the "Music" on iPod Touch). While using Firmware 3.0 beta 4 on iPod Touch first generation, we can see that the controls for the volume are gone. This is an intelligent system, that turns on and off volume control, depending on USB, headphones and AD2P connection:
3. Fixed problems with iPhoto and displaying thumbnails of the screenshots / images from the CameraRoll.
Firmware 3.0 Beta 4
Apple released new firmware 3.0 beta4. It is only for developers' use and it requires iTunes 8.2.

New Skype ver 1.0.3
Skype is updated to version 1.0.3. Here is a changelog:
- Fixed crashing when clicking on certain contacts in the contact list.
- Fixed crashing when returning to the contact list after having accepted a contact authorization request in specific cases.
- Improved the handling of international calling prefixes in SkypeOut calling.
You might still see a pop-up (first time launch) saying that the application works only on non-jailbroked devices. I can assure you that it works rather well, without any problems.
New Version of Google Mobile iPhone App Features Added "Ninja"
We don't have an explanation for this, but the new version of the Google Mobile App for iPhone/iPod Touch lists some pretty wacky improvements, notably "Longer Version Number" and "Ninja." This screen can be seen in the "Update Details" section of the app. We hope some fun-loving Google employee didn't just get fired for his ninja-humor-based initiative.
