Multiple account support in new iPhone 3.0B4?

Wed, 04/29/2009 - 3:33pm — Quincy Pince-Nez

The Apple Blog has the goods. Basically, now you can have more than one account on your Touch device. We're not sure how often this would come up or why someone would need multiple accounts (work/play?) but apparantly now you can switch between the two on the iPhone.

Anybody able to enable the video features??

I switch between two accounts all the time, one for my home country and one for content from the US. This is brilliant for someone like me!

It isn't for switching

It isn't for switching accounts. It's the initial log in. Imagine you're leaving an Apple or AT&T store, Best Buy, or Wal-Mart. Currently, if you want to buy content you have to wait till iTunes has synced your account information over. With this new pop-up, you can sign in or sign up.
