iPhone 2.2 is out...

[Wolffie]

well obviously you can rotate the phone to view it the proper way....but as for saving the screencap in landscape orientation, I don't believe you can do that on the phone itself

Press and hold the photo, then turn your phone.
Preps for flicking through photos but doesn't allow it to rotate the photo.

Street view: how to?

Call me stupid, but how do you get street view to activate?

Drop the pin somewhere and then press on the circle with an orange guy that appears in the information bubble with the address

Multiple screenshots in App Store!

Some applications in the App Store are showing additional screenshots!!! Example: Midnight Pool

I am now experiencing no lag in contacts. very smooth

Wow, you're right! 2.1 reduced the lag to about 1-2 seconds but now there's no lag at all! Woohooo!

google maps now says whether or not traffic info is available

"You can only download podcasts at this time."

There's some hope.

I take that as "You can only download podcasts at this time (because you're not connected to WiFi)"

"You can only download podcasts at this time."

There's some hope.

I think the "at this time" means "at this moment when you are connected to a cellular network," not "at this time before we update the software again."

Not that it matters, just like to dash people's hopes, that's all.

Yesh

Finally, something practical like MMS!

*wakes up*

Has anyone ran a speed test on 3G? It seems 3-4x faster now for me!

I'm getting an average of 1245kbps down and 200kbps up. Before I'd only get about 300-400kbps down. Sweet!

google maps now says whether or not traffic info is available

It did that before.

Google Maps already did that.

maybe they released it in the middle of the night to minimise traffic on their server to avoid a repeat of 2.0?

In-Ear headphones?

What about the new in-ear heardphones working with iPhone? There is no mention of this like they did on the iPods. Also what is the setting "enable caps," how can I enable caps?

I just tested it twice and iPhone is fetching my Gmail while asleep.

What site are you using?

 

[SuperMacMan]

How can people be getting ONE MINUTE download times?!?!?!
That makes my 30 min look REALLY pathetic. I'm on 1.5Mbps ADSL.
DAMN YOU TELSTRA AND LIMITING OUR INTERNET!! (I'm Aussie)

Okay, 28 min to go now, can't wait! Yay! Google Street View for my iPod Touch!! w00t!

thats probably because its 2am, and there aren't many phones accessing the tower, hate to burst your bubble

Have you read the rest of this thread?

This is using the speedtest app from the app store.

I just got 2361kbps down with the dslreports.com speed test application. I don't think this is because of the time, I would consistently get 400kbps or lower here in the bay area with 2.1. This is new.

 

[gtg660w]

my bad on the google maps thing, I'd never seen it before;

I got my download very fast cause I'm on a college network server

Anyone notice the progress bar on the iPhone itself? I don't think that was there before... or was it?

Nope it wasn't. Here is another picture! Woo 2.2!!
