Oh ok, yes that's correct. It's both issues, really. Apple has done well to allocate RAM usage across the devices, but there was never, EVER enough preinstalled to accommodate 4.0. Not on the iPad certainly and barely enough on the iPhone 4.
Got a tip for us?

iPod on iPhone now not working
Downloaded and installed successfully, but now when clicking on iPod, no music is showing up and I can't press any of the buttons, although when looking in system, my iPhone 4 it's showing that songs are loaded... not good

I don't see an option or the new text tones.
I'm using an iPhone 3Gs. I don't know if this is why or not.
They're also missing on my iPhone 3GS.
No, it doesn't
Can anyone tell me if the iPhone 4 and iPad builds are the same as Friday's? I just want to be certain and they're already gone from the Dev Center so I can't check there.
Thanks.
I fixed this by playing the song or movie on the ipad from iTunes, while the device is plugged in. Once you start to play it directly from the device, when you unplug it, it appears as normal.
The new text tones are only available on iPhone 4.
Also, for those wondering, the IPSWs released today are bit-for-bit identical to the 4.2.1 GM seed released last week. No need to download again.
I posted this on the other thread, not sure if anybody has tried to setup "Find my iPhone" on an iPhone 3G/3Gs, but I did set it up on my iPad with their "Find My iPad" instructions to create the MobileMe account for "Find my iPhone" service. Once setup on my iPad, I had no problem setting up the same account on my iPhone 3Gs and locating both devices.
EDIT: So to be clear.... it appears that Apple is only requiring that you have 1 current generation device. Unless other folks with the iPhone 3G or iPhone 3Gs can set it up without an iPad.

Dude, quit the damn apps in your switcher. It will be able to CACHE 3 - 6 pages.
Just had my first experience with the 'find my iPhone' service. Alls I can say is wow! Truly terrific.
Same issue here and I'm on a 3GS as well..looks like apple stiffed us and only gave them to the iphone 4 users
How is that even relevant?
MobileSafari is not the same as Safari on a small screen (despite what you may believe). It's a separate (and distinct) piece of software.
Whilst you're correct that MobileSafari has access to a limited amount of RAM (as with all iOS apps), it is possible to have more pages remain cached at any one time than MobileSafari does by default. Just look at Atomic browser yourself for proof.
Downloaded but...
Where are the new text tones? Does anyone see them? All I see are the original tones that came with it.

Have you taken the other person's advice regarding closing your multi-tasked apps?
And have you given any consideration to the complexity of the pages you are loading?
I can load 2 sites on my 3GS all day long without it reloading. If you can't do that in the context of the aforementioned items, then you have an atypical problem.
You may have some apps that use a lot of memory while in a frozen state.
Installer seems to be stuck in a infinite loop for the last 30 minutes...
iPhone 3G. The status bar for the installer goes to complete, it reboots, Apple logo for several minutes, reboot, and then status bar again. It's doing that over and over...

Maybe it's because they've announced it (for the first time afair). Download (624,3 MB iPhone 4, iPad later) started fine in the very minute they launched it (7:15 p.m. CET)"50 minutes left"but now "2 hours left" and doesn't change much.
It's completely relevant.. I'm just demonstrating that pages have the potential to use a lot of memory. The screen size has an impact, yes, but you can still eat up 20MB of memory using a single page.
All I'm saying is that Apple has opted (unlike other browser developers on the phone) to make the Safari application cause less of a dent in memory, so that the rest of the applications on the phone can perform better.
