I was a little cautious when I saw the 2.0.2 update, i’ve started to think it’s not a good idea to be an early adopter of new updates/services anymore. However my curiosity got the better of me so I allowed iTunes to download the 250mb update.
Bug Fixes?
The update adds no new features and all Apple had to say on the matter was that it contained ‘bug fixes’
I’m happy to report that is does actually seem an improvement. In the 10 hours or so since I updated, my iPhone really does seem to be faster with smoother transitions between screens and a better 3G signal all round.

For anybody wondering whether they should update now or wait, I think this time it’s safe to go now!

When the original iPhone came out, Apple had the crazy idea of trying to charge people to make ringtones out of tracks that they already owned!
Not surprisingly this didn’t last very long and Apple dropped the charge. Unfortunately they have never really made it easy to create your own for free though. Or at least they have never made it public.
I love my iPhone 3G but it’s not perfect. A few of the problems with the original iPhone remain along with a big new one.
1. MobileMe sucks!
I’ve been a long time .mac subscriber so was naturally excited about the relaunch as MobileMe. Jobs really did a good job of selling it to me at the keynote. It appeared to be everything I needed to… [...continue reading...]
After finally getting my iPhone 3G yesterday I spent most of my time playing with the Apps and App Store.
It’s early days but there already some amazing Apps available for the iPhone. This list features a wide range including task management, social networking, file transferring, location aware fun and even games. [...continue reading...]
