If you can't wait that long, 9 to 5 Mac has posted a complete iOS 4.1 walkthrough which describes all of the features in the new release.
HDR photography was the one new feature in iOS 4.1 that caught everyone completely off-guard because it was withheld from the three previous betas released to developers. Ironically, I wrote about Pro HDR last week, a $1.99 app that makes taking High Dynamic Range photos easy.
Other new features in iOS 4.1 include:
- Bug Fixes (proximity, Bluetooth, iPhone 3G performance)
- Enhanced Bluetooth audio playback
- Game Center
- HD Video Uploading
- FaceTime in Phone Favorites
- E-Mail Based FaceTime
- Landscape Camera and FaceTime Call Controls
- $.99 TV Show Rentals in iTunes
- Ping support in iTunes
- Disable Spell Check
- FaceTime and Multiplayer/Game Center Restrictions
- AT&T Carrier settings shift to version 8.0
- Over the air Nike + Submissions
