What kind of enterprise features will we see for the iPhone on March 6th?

I use my Apple iPhone from time to time, but mostly as a podcast player and portable video device. It looks like my iPhone may become much more useful after the March 6th meeting where "some exciting new enterprise features" will be discussed. Will we actually see Exchange syncing support on the iPhone or I am hoping for too much here?

I use my Apple iPhone from time to time, but mostly as a podcast player and portable video device. It looks like my iPhone may become much more useful after the March 6th meeting where "some exciting new enterprise features" will be discussed. Will we actually see Exchange syncing support on the iPhone or I am hoping for too much here? It looks like this date will be the official launch of the SDK, but that means another period of waiting for developers to get applications to us. Maybe Apple will make a few applications available along with the SDK release to give us something to use and get excited about as we wait for our favorite developers to bring the software we want to see on the device.

I would like to see SlingPlayer Mobile for the iPhone, some kind of word processor/text editor, Mobipocket, PocketBible, StyleTap, and some games. I would also like to see updates to the Bluetooth stack with profiles for A2DP and external keyboards. Cut, copy, paste and multi-select in email would also be nice added features outside the SDK release.
