One thing I always wanted for my iPhone, was the ability to take a screen shot of the application I am using. Why? Cause I do a lot of demos of search apps and social media apps and taking pictures with a camera is just not as good.
Now You Can! How? Hold down the home button and then press the power button at the top of the iPhone.
The iPhone will flash, like a camera, and place the image in the Photo’s Camera Roll folder. Then you sync it to your computer or MobileMe or where-ever and you can include that screen shot anywhere.
Here is a video demo of it in action:
Here is a screen shot of this blog using this method:

Awesome! I’ve been wishing for that one for quite a while myself. Thanks for posting!
