Works great if you lock your phone with a password and don't want to fumble around with it.
It also works when you are listening to music from your ipod and are in another app that still allows the music to play (really anything besides games)


Unfortunately it doesn't work with Pandora or the like which would be fantastic.:(

It came out with a software update early this year, but I don't think its a widely advertised feature.

I think the double click home button option existed with the original firmware.

No, it was added a bit later down the line (by a few months)

EDIT: I was close, it came out with 1.1.1, which was released on 9/27/07, about 3 months after the iPhone launched. http://www.downloadsquad.com/2...rmware-1-1-1-released/
