If true, I think it's great that Apple is being aggressive competing with these features, and I look forward to their implementation.

As an aside:
I think that decoupling the WAN radio is a VERY smart move, and one that NVidia's Tegra uses to great advantage (quicker time to market). It would be better still if it were modular like a SIM card. I wish more handset developers were pushing carrier independence with clever moves such as this.
