Latest firmware for iPhone allows image saving from Safari

When I came across that I could not help but be excited. How often are you browsing on your iPhone and you see an image you would really like to save for later? For most, that happens often. Apple has realized the desire for that feature, and in the latest release of the 1.2.0 firmware, that ability was discovered.

The new firmware not only adds that feature, but makes it nearly too easy to use. All you have to do is hold your finger on the image for a few seconds, and the shown

dialog will seem giving you the choice to save the image, or to to go to the image URL. The image will be saved in an album on the iPhone so you can sync up later and retrieve it.

There are tons of things that could be useful for. Saving new images to set as backgrounds. possibly saving a picture of of MySpace, the possibilities are endless. Again, that is directly from Safari, no iTunes, no third party application, it is all in Safari.
