Another Twin Cities guy, not available. iTunes says I already have 3.0 (which I do, have since beta 1), so maybe GM is the same as the one being released.

I got it in minneapolis at 12:18

iTunes reported available update at 10:17 PST

Installed. Works great.

 

[payup]

why are there negative votes for this topic?

 

[shoulin333]

LOL anyone else see the cartoon pic of Steve Jobs with what looked like a Russian quote? or was that because my phone was jailbroken?

 

[StPatty33]

Halfway through Install...

Let's hope 3.0 doesn't brick my phone for 10 hours like 2.0 did!

 

[JPark]

Installed. Works great.

Would you say it's "snappier"?

 

[aznkid25]

I just plugged in my ipod to check for updates, even though I installed it last night, and it said that 3.0 was the current version. So is it safe to assume that the one I got last night is the same one people are downloading now?

 

[shanew21]

I got Error 13...I'm trying it on a different computer now...

 

[Shellbo6901]

I got it!

 

[Righteous]

Does the update upgrade the baseband on the iPhone 2G? I cant loose my unlock!

Yeah, it's sure looking that way. It looks like I could have saved myself a lot of anxious waiting.

It's a lot snappier and smoother.
