You can do the same thing with a 300MB update by comparing both versions as you can with a 3MB diff update. Apple doesn't stick the binary in a blender and scramble it.
Microsoft does differential updates, and they are aware of the risk. It's unavoidable.
x.x.1 releases should NEVER introduce new functionality. A release like this *should* only fix bugs.
Uh....
Am I the only one having a problem recording video and then playing it back on a 3GS? After the 3.0.1 upgrade that is

I agree. That's not a reason at all.
Mac OS X updates are also differential updates.
Android can even do OTA differential update.
The iPhone OS are getting bigger now; they should change to differential update soon.
doesn't updating to a new firmware always break the JB?
Or do you mean it will unable you to JB in the future, even with the 3.1 fix whenever it comes from the dev team or geo?
Bad idea, don't update. The sms virus is a lie never happened to me. It's a complete waste of time.
There's no jailbroken 3.0.1 yet & probably wont be one anytime soon.
YAY ! OS 3.0.1 for my non-hacked iPhone 3GS.
HAHA take that! Jailbraker loosers.
WOW, you must be very young to say something so immature. Sad almost.

HAHA take that! Jailbraker loosers. I pay for my apps.
and also check your spelling.....uneducated. Truly sad actually.
Where has our youth gone? lol
Pika's first paragraph from his profile:
Hi, I'm Flyzor - arguably insane and wholly incredible. Whatever you were looking for, youve found it. Welcome to my profile that is so large because I like to express myself and be understood, and because theres just so much to me (this profile doesnt even begin to do me justice) - if you think its too long, then you are obviously overlooking how fascinating I am.

who rated this negative? lol.. its not exactly bad news, unless you think that they should of released this a month ago, when the cyber-guy notified them (not that i necessarily want to take his word for it neither lol!!) It can only be good news that Apple patched this!
Also why would this update be 290megs i mean, i dont have a problem with it, it downloads in itunes, n does itself, just wondering why it it would be so large, compared to an update of OSX (between 500-750meg which is understandable thats an entire OS) iPhone OS is a stripped down thing no?

Is this a serious comment? Please say no.
It "never happened to you" because the details about the security hole were just released yesterday.
As an iPhone app developer, i'm simply happy that Apple take actions against all this iPhone jailbreaking.
This is good news for me... maybe not for you.
Installed on my 3G. Nice to have that security flaw patched, no other differences in terms of speed or 'snappiness' however.
Would it kill people to realise that the version of iPhone OS you're using has nothing to do with lack of MMS support? A software update won't enable MMS for AT&T users, most of the world has been using MMS since 3.0 hit, and their carriers pushed the required settings to the iPhone upon activation.
Waiting on Apple to activate MMS via a software update won't work for you I'm afraid.
AT&T customers asking for MMS in this update - I would have thought seeing as I've been MMSing on O2-UK since the first day the 3GS came out that this fault has nothing to do with the software? and just out of interest what is the deal with AT&T customers not being able to do this, I've never thought to look it up

Not all JB people steal apps. Many, many people that are part of the modmyi community flame and kick people that talk about stealing apps. I pay for all my apps, I jb purely for the themes.
And if you remember the exploit a long time ago with the visiting a website could take control, the JBers were the first that had the fix.
well, jailbreak? my life is busy. I don't have time to take care of it. even I am busy to use my phone. what's wrong without jalibreaking? I don't care. my phone is just fine. oh, thank you for 3.0.1 update.

If you were a true developer you would admire all the amazing apps they've made within the JB community. You're an amateur.
