so i guess no iOS 7.0.x fix to correct the crashing issues apple said would fix in a upcoming update?
Probably not, try adding a bug report at bugrepoter.apple.com

I'm in the UK and just got this update...
Same here .. strange ....
On a 5s or 5c though right?
Still going to suck for these users if they have slipped in the fixes for the JB, which I wouldn't be surprised about.
To clarify, the update is for "iPhone6,2" (5s) and "iPhone5,4" (5c). For firmware purposes, this includes not only most Asia Pacific models (A1528/A1530) but also European models (A1457) for 5s. Similar situation with 5c.
So for Euro customers, you'll get this update but it probably doesn't do anything for you.

Nothing for me on my 5s in the USA just an FYI. Yes, I did read "China" but I thought I'd still share.
Like the way people remember ios 6 as if it was the best thing ever, when at the time it was getting absolutely slated. Will happen when ios 8 comes out and people will be reminiscing about the "perfect" iOS 7, which they never thought existed at the time

As a UK iPhone user, who will be visiting China in a couple of weeks, I wonder if this will benefit me. No harm in updating, I guess even if it won't!
anyone have any idea whether this will be of any benefit to me?

Yes...because 99% of the world will stay on 7.0.4. Plus this is only for the iPhone 5s/5c and not iPads/iPods.
iOS 7.0.4 should be continued to be signed.

I never get the update version numbers they use? we never got to 4.9, 5.9, 6.9, ect. so why not go with 7.1 instead of 7.0.1, 7.0.2?Half way there, on our way to 7.1
never understood the reasoning for it, we may not know?

I don't know, that wasn't me. I thought it needed a redesign and Maps needed to be fixed, but at least my phone didn't randomly reboot and at least Voice Memos (an app I use constantly for work) didn't crash 5+ times a day on me. So yeah, iOS 7 could really use some bug fixes. I'm not saying I hate it, and I'm not saying iOS 6 was the best thing ever, I'm just saying I want them to fix the things that should've been fixed by last September when the OS was released. You know?
I've asked the editors the same question.
EDIT: Looks like they've fixed it.
Indeed. I get more excited than usual when I see any mention of an update.... because i'm so frustrated with all the Safari crashes (i get several a day minimum). I don't have many hard reboots (have only had maybe 2-3 total on iPad Air since I got it. I've never had this much problem with an Apple software product before.

If you are interested, why don't you learn about software versioning:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_versioning
Exactly how many versions of the iPhone are there? Is this just a specific flavor for a specific country given the cell frequency or is there something else that I missed?
