New iPhone OS Update Gets Push Preferences

The latest build of iPhone OS 2.0, 5a274d, includes a preference panel that allows users to control settings for applications with push capabilities. The primary intent of this function is to allow users to conserve battery life by turning push capabilities off for applications like Mail, which supports push for Exchange and Yahoo! Mail servers.
According to iPhone Atlas, the new “Fetch New Data” preference in iPhone OS 2.0, 5a274d presumably controls push capabilities for both Exchange and Yahoo! Mail accounts, as well as future Apple or third-party applications that support push.
