3.0 is a joke as it relates to uploading just like the last software update. Why are their developers such boobs. For hours my phone has been on restore finally unplugged and now hours on restoring Iphone software. This is such a joke that they cannot get this right.

Before you update to OS 3.0, you might consider checking that any and all of your iPhone approved devices will work with it. My Logitec speakers no longer allow my iPhone to be an iPhone when I use them, now I have to put the iPhone in airplane mode.

found this one somewhere in the web…

12 Bugs We’ve Found In iPhone OS 3.0

1. Multimedia messaging does not support sculpture, macrame, or interpretive dance.
2. Voice memo recordings totally don’t sound like me. I don’t sound like that, do I? Seriously?
3. Turned on adult content filter but everybody in my videos still has their clothes on.
4. Adding a task to calendar did not result in task getting done.
5. Clicked this blue “compass” icon but kept getting some stupid web browser.
6. Still no apps to cure the nagging feeling that I should’ve bought a Palm Pre.
7. The touchscreen is now on the back of the phone instead of the front.
8. Gone to the bathroom four times already today, and Remote Wipe hasn’t worked once.
9. Spotlight search crashed with memory overload error trying to index my Harry Potter cosplay photo collection.
10. Tried out tethering, but I think I broke my finger smacking that phone around the pole.
11. Apple still hasn’t fixed the no-hardware-keyboard bug.
12. “Cut” function does not apply to monthly AT&T bill.

Now that the iPhone supports tethering. Will we be able to share(tether) the internet connection to another phone? like from your phone to buddies phone?

I am having the same problem. My email will not stay open and the screen will not automatically shut off. Apple needs to address this email problem pretty quickly or it is back to the Blackberry.

working fine! Really happy about the text messaging landscape mode, push notifications and the MMS works fine! Safari does seem to be working a little faster… which is awesome of course! Apple’s 3.0 is a very good respons to the complaints people had about the iPhone! God bless copy paste ..

The issue is not with the Anycom BAR-10 as it works flawlessly with the Sony Bluetooth Dongle (TMR-BT8IP) with my iPod Touch, as well as my Blackberry!!!

A couple of quick comments. One, I just updated my iPod touch (gen 1) no problems.

The shake to shuffle on music is kind of cool, the unified search is nice. Haven’t played with copy/paste yet but that is a big deal, regardless of wishing it was available months ago.

Also, the Google Maps update is sweet (previously unavailable for the iPod touch), and I esp. like the workflow ease of looking in my immediate area, searching for a restaurant by name, seeing it on the map, clicking, seeing street view and then being able to add to address book.

All of that said, I want to put a bow around fact that this release is somewhat akin to a “block the kick” by Apple to keep developers from even contemplating developing for Android, Pre or Blackberry, so most of the feature adds are to drive developers to do even cooler stuff.

That may seem like a “SO WHAT” if you just plunked down $9.95 for the touch upgrade (as I did), but when then next 50K apps roll out, and a quarter of them take advantage of things like hardware accessory support within apps; multi-player gaming; add levels/stories/virtual goods, the new mapping and media APIs, you will be a happy camper.

If you care about such things, here is a post that I wrote on the topic:

ANALYSIS – iPhone 3.0: Block the Kick Strategy

Final note. Many forums are bemoaning server delays, lack of app store access today.

It’s nature of the beast, when 10M people (a guess, figuring 25% out of 40M devices) simultaneously try to access and download a big fat binary, so expect delays.

If that freaks you out, wait until tomorrow. It’s not like they will run out of software.

Cheers,

Mark

FIX! WORKS!

At the point at which the software is being extracted (assuming you have been able to download it) turn off your internet connection.
The software installation then proceeds without a problem.
At the point at which you get the message saying “can’t connect to the itunes store” turn your internet connection back on. Then unplug the usb, plug it back in and it it will reactivate.
