battery life

Just curious, how can battery life be improved through a firmware update? And is this for 3G only, or will it also improve battery life on the 1st gen?

tell them your downloading 2.1 they will understand

Now *that's* funny!

What issue is that?

The typing lag. It was truly getting to me after a few months of dealing with it.

Safari seems Snappier!!

Gonna try a sync to see if it's faster now.

Backing up...

I hope this 2.1 fixes the long backup times.
I am installing now.

 

[hypnospastic]

Still forgot one update

Why on earth can Apple forget to add a MMS feature? I am so tired of having a snapshot that I want everyone to see and not being able to send it to everyone. I am SO tired of being only able to send to people with email addresses. EVERY OTHER PHONE HAS AN MMS FEATURE EXCEPT iPhone! I mean the iPhone can do EVERYTHING else basically except MMS

Don't mean to vent but CHEESE AND RICE Apple!

Figures. The INSTANT I leave the house.

haha me too but luckily I brought my laptop to my grandmas house (have a dentist at 10am and my grandma lives right next to the dentist) and extremly lucky my grandmas neighbors Wi-Fi is actually working today

Backing up now, hopefully my last long backup. Crap I might have to leave my phone here while I go to the dentist. Unlike most people i've talked to or heard on TV I actually like my dentist, we both have iPhones and like sharing things we've got for it. Oh well, just a normal cleaning today

Lucky you. I've got 3 hours left. Does anyone have it installed yet? Can you send images through SMS yet?

 

[Petoz]

Downloaded. Now backing up before the install. Woo!

 

[jsousa]

Now *that's* funny!

haha. well i work at best buy, in the CELL PHONE department, so now ill be able to answer peoples questions about the update!

 

[Bye Bye Baby]

Does it break Netshare

Guys, any news on Netshare? Does it get broken?

Would be a complete disaster for me!

No problem

I think I'll wait until all you suckers beta testers check it out.

Should be only 3 or 4 more minutes until the complaint threads start.
