I’m used to taking screenshots using Xcode, part of Apple’s iPhone SDK.

So it was news to me that ever since the 2.0 firmware, you can take screenshots directly on your  iPhone:

Press and hold the Home button (round button on the front) then click the Sleep/Wake button (small button on top of the iPhone).

You’ll hear the camera sound and the screen will flash. Launch the Photos app and you’ll see your new screenshot in the Camera Roll.
