(AP) - Apple Inc. Chief Executive Steve Jobs unveiled a string of new features for the iPhone Tuesday, showing how users can now pinpoint their location on Web maps, text message multiple people at once and customize their home screens.
During Jobs' presentation at the Macworld Conference & Expo in San Francisco, he also announced that the Cupertino-based company has sold 4 million iPhones _ combination iPod-cell phone-Internet surfing devices _ during its first 200 days on sale.
A packed auditorium cooed and applauded when Jobs demonstrated an upgrade to the iPhone's mapping function that identifies the user's location and allows them to chart direction and easier navigate outings.
Other new features Jobs rolled out included the ability to switch around the icons on the iPhone's home screen. Users can create up to 9 home screens.
