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.
Most importantly, they seem to have finally fixed the typing lag!
For anybody wondering whether they should update now or wait, I think this time it’s safe to go now!
You’ve probably realised by now that it’s not a good idea to sync your iPhone if you’re in a hurray.
Every time you sync your iPhone after adding or removing any Apps/games it will make a full image backup which can take a very long time. The more Apps you add to your iPhone the longer it will take!

Sorry for the slightly sensationalist headline! But iPhone 3G day is only 1 week away and I’m over excited!
It is also true, well in UK at least. But I know a high proportion of readers to this blog are not in UK, so apologies if the same does not apply to you.
Old Contracts
One of the main reasons I didn’t purchase an original iPhone last year (apart from the lack of 3G) was the poor contracts. This was probably due to Apple only allowing 1 network provider, therefore removing the need for o2 to be competitive and also Apple taking a cut of each contract for themselves.

Finally the rumours have turned to reality. At WWDC 2008 Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone 2 or the iPhone 3G as it’s been named.
Apple Fanboy
I’m the first to admit I’m a massive Apple fanboy, I have 3 Macs at the moment including a MacMini Media Center (at the top of my shopping list is a 24: iMac and Time Capsule) and countless iPods… [...continue reading...]
