All you have to do is pop out your sim card and then do the update. It will activate every time!

Apple can’t update a few million devices? They should fire their CTO. Microsoft can update hundreds of millions of PC’s every month.

Apple gets a big FAIL as usual.

And why do people think ATT can’t handle MMS traffic from iPhone users when there are millions more “regular” phones that use MMS every day?

Stop with all your pissing & moaning. I remember when you had to write to the airlines for tickets – then wait a couple of weeks to receive them. Slow down and live a little.

How does this problem have anything to do with at&t? Are they responsible for the update downloads. It seems like taking a swipe at at&t is all anyone wants to do. They have been great for me, better than my past carrier experiences.

What a shock that APPLE once AGAIN FAILS it users. I wonder is it their Xserve servers that fail or Apples complete stupidity to manage the load correctly?

I think steve jobs should go fuck himself for releasing this p.o.s line of phones. And how could someone call these smartphones. I think if you have an iphone you probably should wear a helmet and take the little bus everywhere you go.

Blackberry is a real smartphone I don’t care if apples been selling more it just means people are getting stupider day by day

@turbodolphin – I’m not doubting that at all. I am going to be very shocked if AT&T’s network does not go kaput when MMS is enabled for the iPhone.

Let’s see what “later this summer” brings to the AT&T network.

the shit will start flying AT&Ts’ way as soon as the 3Gs is launched, apple’s server issue is nothing compared to AT&T not prepared for MMS or tethering, simply ridiculous.

lol…I knew this was going to happen. I just had “that” feeling.

Some learn, some don’t…Apple, apparently, has not learned anything about server and bandwidth capacity. Idiots.
