We continue to note minor new, undocumented features extant in iPhone OS 2.2.

"Update All" back The ability to update all applications with the press of one button--a feature that was disable in iPhone OS 2.1--is back in iPhone OS 2.2.

Locked screen screenshots iPhone OS 2.2 now offers the ability to snap images of the locked screen. To take a screenshot: while holding the home button, press and release the sleep/wake button. A screen flash indicates that that the image was captured.

Also they fixed the problem with iPod crashing with more than 19 audiobooks. I haven't tested the upper limit yet, but at least 23 is still okay. iPod also now seems to remember the position in Audiobooks, thus the bug in 2.1 and 2.0 where it didn't always save the current position when listening was interrupted due to a call.

Screenshot appears to work on any app, not just the lock screen.
