One feature the iPhone slaps Android-powered phones in the face with — like a dead insult fish — is multi-touch, and the rumours are that more multi-touch gestures will be available in iPhone OS 4.0.

We may see a larger-than-life version of the iPhone OS on the fabled iTablet we expect to be launched next Wednesday, which should give us a hefty hint as to what’s also in store for this year’s iPhone.
