Controls on the keyboard such as music controls, volume, and brightness controls, work well with the iPhone. Most other functional buttons aren’t assigned to anything at the moment. It should also be noted they are using an Apple keyboard.
This is a feature we’ve all been playing with via our Jailbroken iDevices on the previous firmwares. While this doesn’t make a good enough reason to jump aboard the beta, it’s both great and unfortunate news.
Developers that have spent many hours of hard work creating our current Bluetooth apps for Jailbroken devices will feel a bite, as these apps will become obsolete with the release of iPhone 4.0. Of course, there is always the possibility of future updates to these apps that will further enhance the support built into 4.0, as we tend to usually see from our Jailbroken Apps. While we are all for official support from Apple for this, we do feel for all the developers that gave us this feature way before Apple ever did. Nonetheless, it’s great to see that Apple is finally paying attention, or at least appearing to pay attention.
