, cut & paste functionality and a system wide search feature. Read the full breakdown of all the Apple iPhone 3GS’s features below. Palm Pre fans look away now (The ‘S’ in 3GS stands for’Speed’ BTW. According to apple, it is faster than the old iPhone but we’ll wait for advertising standards to confirm that one…)
