Show battery percentage on the iPhone 3GS

The iPhone 3GS finally gives you the ability to have a more accurate battery reading. To set this go to the Settings application and then select General and then Usage. Toggle the Battery Percentage to ON and your iPhone will then show the percentage of your battery remaining next to the very tiny icon that indicates battery life.

Note that this only works on the iPhone 3GS. It will not work on an iPhone 3G even if it has the 3.0 software.
